You won't believe how easy it is to make this DIY version of Neosporin Salve!

Healing ‘Boo-Boo’ Salve, a.k.a Homemade Natural Neosporin

All of us get ‘boo-boos’.  Right?  Some of us get them more often than others.{raises hand} I am so accident prone. You know, I once broke my foot from stepping  off the last stair of my staircase? And my oldest daughter takes after me.  If she doesn’t fall once a day, we start to worry about her.
Having something at home at all times to take care of all the minor boo-boos (minor cuts, scrapes, & minor burns) can be a real life saver.  And, that’s where my homemade boo-boo salve comes in.  I positively adore this stuff.  It’s completely100% natural, and it 100% works too!!
I use this for all the standard boo-boos – minor cuts, scrapes, minor burns.  It’s alsofantastic on diaper rash & eczema!
(note: please do not use this on severed fingers, broken or protruding bones, or other extreme boo-boos.  Go to the hospital. Like right now.  Thanks – xoxo) 
And, don’t hold this exclusively for the boo-boos.  I mentioned it’s great for diaper rash & eczema, but it also does wonders for dry, chapped skin.  So, slather yourself up this winter!
Another great thing – it’s not hard to make at all.  Here, let me show you.  This is what you need:

  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (proven to help heal burns – plus it’s anti-microbial, anti-bacterial, & a great moisturizer
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil (full of vitamins & a great moisturizer
  • 1/4 cup dried comfrey (a herb for healing woulds
  • 1/4 cup dried calendula (a herb for healing woulds & skin irritations
  • 2oz beeswax (equals out to 2 of the 1oz bars or 4 tablespoons – you can also use beeswax pellets so you don’t have to worry about slicing through it)
  • 2 tablespoons of honey (natural moisturizer with anti-microbial properties
  • 10 drops lavender essential oil (anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, & analgesic
