Every family has a thing that goes everywhere. A favourite blanket, a battered water bottle, the one toy that cannot be left behind. In Barnaby's mob it is a small tube of Calendula cream, tucked in the pouch beside a sprig of eucalyptus.
It is there for the grazed knee at the creek and the sunburnt nose after a long afternoon. It is there for the insect bite that swells overnight and the dry patch that will not settle. One tube, a dozen small emergencies, no fuss.
That is what "all purpose" really means. Calendula has been used for skin for centuries, and in our organic cream it is joined by nothing harsh at all: no sulphates, no parabens, no artificial colour. It is safe for babies, gentle on ageing skin, and light enough to wear under makeup.
If you only ever keep one Natural Aid product in your bag, make it this one. Barnaby would.
