    Notes
    Oils have varying properties:
    Renown for healing
    Hemp Seed and Tamanu Oils 
    Rich and absorbent
    Sweet Almond and Sunflower Oil

    Add more beeswax for a firmer ointment, more oil for a softer one.

    Use infused oils, like calendula oil, for the greater healing power of the herbs. Make sure these oils are part of your base carrier oil.
