Cosmetic Recipe: Soothing Marigold Healing Balm

Instructions:

1. In a double boiler or heat-safe bowl placed over simmering water, gently melt the shea butter and beeswax together, stirring occasionally until fully liquefied.
2. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly (but not solidify).
3. Stir in the Marigold (Calendula) Oil Extract and Jojoba Oil until thoroughly combined.
4. Pour the mixture into clean, dry containers (e.g., small jars or tins).
5. Allow the balm to cool and solidify completely at room temperature before use.

Application Recommendations:

• Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread use to check for any individual sensitivity.
• Apply a small amount of the balm to dry, irritated, or inflamed skin as needed.
• For wound healing, apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin.
• For lip care, apply a small amount to chapped lips.
• Store the balm in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to maintain its consistency and efficacy.
• The concentration of Marigold Oil Extract can be adjusted depending on the desired potency and the specific application. Start with the recommended percentage and adjust accordingly.
• This balm is anhydrous (water-free), which helps to preserve the beneficial properties of the Marigold extract and provides a rich, protective barrier for the skin.
• For a softer balm consistency, you can slightly increase the percentage of Jojoba Oil or decrease the percentage of beeswax.
