Homemade Lavender Skin Salve

Lavender is the holy grail of stress relief. Infuse the petals in oil to aid in headaches, anxiety, and better sleep but also to heal irritated skin or even repel mosquitos.

Me and @laja have a massive plant of lavender which is absolute heaven for pollinators and healing properties.

STEP BY STEP:

hang dry your fresh lavender for about 5-7 days
infuse your favourite oil with dry lavender for 30 days (I used olive oil)
In the top part of a double boiler, add 1 cup of your lavender oil and roughly 3 x tbsp soy wax or bees wax. You can also add any essential oil but I prefer to keep it as natural as possible.
Add water to the bottom section of the double boiler so you can melt but not burn the mixture.
While still hot, carefully pour the mix in your containers and leave it to cool down until completely cold.
Apply a thin layer to your skin and enjoy the benefits of this incredible skin salve 🙏🏻
