Beauty: Calendula allied to the skin
Its scientific name is Calendula officinalis, it is a botanical family of the Asteraceae, it is also known as marigold and golden button. This plant is of Mediterranean origin and for the beauty of its flowers it is used to decorate gardens; However, this beautiful shrub has more to offer, because in addition to having many health properties, for being antiseptic, antispasmodic, fungicide, avoiding ulcers, regulate digestive processes, among others. It is also known for providing benefits in the field of beauty, as it is rich in favorable moisturizing emollients to reverse the signs of aging that our skin suffers.
The calendula contains important amounts of saponias, phytosterols and beta-carotene, substances that calm irritations and soften the skin. This plant is anti-inflammatory and acts on damaging tissues, notoriously restructuring its structure. It improves the pink spots of the skin and also acts as an excellent astringent.
Friends, this plant is ideal to keep our skin soft and smooth, hence I recommend it widely, it can be used in infusions, scans, oils and poultices. Now you know how calendula can provide benefits to keep you beautiful and younger.
I hope you like this post, see you soon!

Howdy! Glad to see you establishing a routine here as you outlined in your I tried post! Our founder, @sagescrub has added you to our auto voter and given you a 30 Steem Power delegation to help you overcome and Mana/Resource Credit issues you may encounter as you grow here. Here's some information that we like to give to newcomers, I hope you can find it helpful:
Welcome to steem :) We're very glad you're here, and I hope you can dig yourself in and get pretty well established here! You'll find there's a good group of folks here with homesteading and sustainability on their mind. Not the least of which are @sagescrub (creator of @homesteaderscoop), @riverflows (creator of @naturalmedicine), @pennsif (creator of @altlife, the alternative lifestyle show for homesteaders), and @freedomtowrite and @freedompoint (creators of @ghscollective). Those are the ones driving the sustainability bus on steem. Lots of others like @porters, @walkerland, @mountainjewel, @sustainablelivin (@mariannewest's profile for her Sustainable Living Podcast), @squishysquid, @goat-girlz, @senorcoconut, @vanessamidwife, @ppmsilver, @allyinspirit, @makinstuff, @simplymike, @craigcryptoking, @buckaroo, @papa-pepper, @wildhomesteading, and many many more are the ones in the community making it such a great group to be with. They're all well worth a follow. For a more complete list, @pennsif has compiled a directory of active steemian homesteaders that can be accessed HERE and is a great way to network and find Homesteaders near you if they're on here.
Most communities on steem currently meet on discord, so that's a really handy app for steemians looking to get into the swing of things. It offers a simple, user-friendly messaging place where we can all talk and keep up off chain. There are hopeful developments coming for on-chain options, but those are probably a few forks away. You'll learn about hard forks as you grow on the chain a bit. Til then, our three main groups are Homesteaders Co-op, Natural Medicine, and Global Homesteading Collective. The Homesteaders Co-op website is a marketplace built by @sagescrub where we are able to buy and sell sustainably produced goods using STEEM, SBD, and USD as well as gift and barter economics. It's the first marketplace of it's kind, and we're all quite excited about it.
A great tool for steem interaction is @ginabot. A splendid notification service that works through discord to let you know about steem interactions on chain. She'll let you know when you're mentioned, when people send you money, when certain folks make a post, or when posts are made with your favorite tags. Very very helpful, and I think most steemians use Gina.
One thing you'll find is that there are a lot of interfaces with the steem blockchain. There's steemit.com, busy.org, steempeak.com, partiko.app, d.tube, and many others that all boast different features and benefits. In any steem link, you can change out those sites and get the same post in different formats depending on your preferred interface. I prefer SteeemPeak and Partiko, but it's a fun learning experience to try a few for yourself, as the Steemit interface is a very basic interface that leaves much to be desired. Thats an intentional situation though, as Steemit Inc (Stinc) has bigger things to worry about.
I hope this little introduction can help you a bit. Things like this weren't being done much during the hectic time when I joined steem. As changes have been made to the chain and how it works, this kind of thing has become very important to help people stay engaged on the platform. With the price of steem being down (you'll find nobody cares terribly much about that), things have calmed down and many of the spammers and uninterested parties have gone inactive. As have many other good people, but (in general) the people you encounter here are the ones that truly desire to be here and see promise in the platform. We're here for the long haul, and we hope you find value here as well. :)
