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.
