    Medicinal

    Marigold flowers have been used topically throughout history to treat a variety of skin problems where infection, inflammation and associated soreness are a problem.

    Traditionally seen by herbalists as a natural antiseptic, preparations of this herb have often been applied to cuts and grazes to promote healing. It has also been recommended as an infusion to be taken internally to help with digestive problems relating to inflammation of the gut, and to assist with digestive issues relating to the liver and gallbladder.

    Perfect and not bulky
    Color: Apricot, Size: 17.3 Inch
    Love this slim backpack, plenty of room for my laptop and so much more. Lots of zipper and mesh pockets. I like the separate compartments for the laptop. It’s well designed and very functional. I wanted something that was not bulky and this fit the bill, it’s really great. The material is nice and easy to keep clean. Seems well made, I’ll update down the road if that changes. I recommend this backpack.

    Perfect work travel bag!
    Color: Black, Size: 14 Inch
    Perfect work bag! I was looking for something for a petite frame. Can fit a lot in it, worth the money, love all of the pockets. Can carry two ways - either with handles or wear on back like a backpack

    Perfect backpack to use as a purse
    Color: Champagne Brown, Size: 14 Inch, Color: Champagne Brown, Size: 14 Inch
    I LOVE THIS BACKPACK! It's perfect as an EDC backpack used in lieu as a purse. It's small enough to use daily and to keep basic necessities in. It has a main compartment, a basic compartment for a laptop or iPad, and a small front pocket. There is a small area that closes with a snap where the handle comes out of that can be used for storage as well. I like to keep my sunglasses or vape in it. I like to wear a backpack when shopping, it makes it easier to have my hands and arms free and I also don't have to worry about my purse in a cart and someone dipping into it when I'm not looking. While I like to wear a backpack, I don't need an ACTUAL backpack used to carry large objects and this fits the bill. I'm able to fit my wallet, phone, 10" iPad, journal, tech kit, small makeup bag, keys, glasses, gum, coin purse, misc. pouch in it and it still has room at the top. The quality is excellent, as all Golf Bags are. The color is a beautiful neutral medium taupe (I got the light brown/cappuccino? color) but I would love this bag in black, blue, and beige! The blue color is such a pretty blue!

    Good for office and school.
    Color: Black, Size: 16 Inch, Color: Black, Size: 16 Inch
    Looks good and it's lightweight. Soft material for the design. Storage is ok, could be better with softer cushions and a strong cover material. Zipper is sturdy so far. Versatile. Cons: Has no strap to keep laptop in place. Laptop cushion not thick enough.

    LOVE IT! But let's clarify the color!
    Color: Apricot, Size: 14 Inch
    Hi! I bought the 14" backpack in apricot. A few things stand out to me: 1) High Quality-this is a quality-made product. 2) The Apricot color is closer to a light tan or light sand color. 3) It was not as wrinkled upon arrival as I read elsewhere. I do not intend to steam the wrinkles out. I don't see that as necessary and I hate wrinkles. It's beautiful! It's high-quality. It has every pocket and function you'd want. (see the videos.) Once I use it more, I'll add to my review if necessary. I love it. I'm happy a bought it and I think you would be too! Nice to get a product with such obvious quality!
