It is made of marigold with essential oil of Lavender. You might just try buying some essential oil of Lavender and add some to coconut oil or shea butter, or coco butter, etc..you can whip the shea butter first. I like to melt some then whip it then add the essential oil of choice. Love, Prism Re: addicted to california baby`s calendula cream

Date: June 21, 2008 06:50PM I would try drying some marigold flowers, then once dry you can make an infusion of them. Just pour some boiling water over the flowers or flower petals and let steep for about 10 or 15 minutes, then strain and use some of that or all to pour into some shea butter to melt the shea butter, add a couple drops of tea tree oil if you want, then whip it up to consistency you like and add in a couple drops or whatever you like of an essential oil. I have one of those little hand held electric mixers that works really well in whipping the shea butter. If you want it thicker you can add some coco butter in it.
As for daughters eczema, try some B vitamins in liquid form which you can get from a health food store, B vits helped my son get rid of his. You might also try wrapping her legs or have her soak in a tub of water with some added seaweeds like Kelp, or Bladderwrack. Love, Prism Re: addicted to california baby`s calendula cream
