Calendula Cream

Making your own hemorrhoid remedies is easy with three simple ingredients: calendula, olive oil, and beeswax.

This calendula cream is so multi-purpose! Calendula is a great all round skin herb. It's very easy to grow in the garden and dries beautifully for year round use.

Calendula has anti inflammatory properties and is very soothing for many skin conditions. Use Calendula Cream for hemorrhoids, diaper rash, dry skin, skin rash, etc.

Make a pot of this calendula ointment and have it on hand as an all purpose salve!


What you will need:

  • 1 cup dried calendula petals (Calendula officinalis)
  • 1 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 oz beeswax

Follow these simple steps

  1. Place the calendula petals in an oven safe bowl.
  2. Add the olive oil over top and stir. The flowers should be completely covered, add a little more oil if needed.
  3. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Turn oven off.
  4. Place bowl in oven and leave for 3 hours.
  5. Take out of oven and place on counter for another 5 hours.
  6. Strain through a piece of cheesecloth or muslin. Squeeze out all the oil. You should have about 1 cup of the strained oil.

Now you could just rub the oil directly on the skin irritations or hemorrhoids but it is much easier making it into a solid preparation.

  1. Put your calendula infused oil into the top of a double boiler.
  2. Grate the beeswax and add to the calendula oil.
  3. Simmer the water in the bottom of the double boiler until the beeswax on top is melted . Stir often.
  4. Pour into jars, cap and let cool in fridge.
