St. John's Wort Salve 聖約翰草藥膏

Inspired by reading this herb book, I made this St. John's Wort Salve.
The following information is from: The Complete Herbs Sourcebook by David Hoffmann, p. 320.

"... Externally, it is a valuable healing and anti-inflammatory remedy. As a lotion, it will speed the healing of wounds and bruises, varicose veins, and mild burns. The oil is especially useful for the healing of sunburn."  

聖約翰草外用功效:癒合與抗發炎。加速傷口、瘀青、靜脈曲張、輕微燙傷的痊癒。浸泡油對曬傷很有幫助。


Tried this salve. It can ease itchy skin too.




Infusion oil:Organic beeswax=7.2:1
浸泡油:有機蜂蠟=7.2:1

Germany China Oil:Few drops
德國百靈油:Few drops

St. John's Wort Infusion

Double boiler method. Melt the two ingredients, remove from water,
