Calendula Body Butter

Calendula Body Butter

This calendula body butter recipe is very similar to the Calendula Face Butter. The Calendula Face Butter just has a few more ingredients to be extra soothing to the delicate skin of the face.


Calendula Body Butter
½ cup Shea Butter
¼ cup Calendula Oil
1tsp Arrowroot powder (optional)

Combine ingredients and melt over double boiler. Once melted place it in the fridge to cool it down. Once your butter and oil are solid, whip to fluffiness. 


Put in a jar with a lid and label with date and ingredients. Store in a cool place and this should last up to a year.


Once you swap out body butters for store made lotions you’ll never go back. They are so hydrating and get the job done.


This a great body butter to soothe;

Dry skin, sensitive skin, or irritated skin

Diaper rash and cradle cap

Eczema and psoriasis

Stretch marks

Scar healer
