Baby Bottom Balm/Salve |
Aw, a recipe for a baby's bum, how fantastic! Thank you Emma for your kind submission. This is a really simple recipe but it has worked wonders on my little ones sore bottom. I also made some for my friends little one who had cradle cap and it worked well for that too!! Ingredients 110g Calendula infused olive oil 35g Beeswax (or Carnauba Wax for a vegan version) Mix the oil and wax together in a double boiler and melt slowly over a low heat. Pour into small containers and leave to cool. Once cool replace lids and there you go you're done. The amount of wax stated is just a suggestion (and the amount i use) but of course the amount you use is up to you, depending on whether you want a softer or harder balm, just experiment. |
