St. Maria Faustyna Kowalska is the premier advocate for those in need of spiritual and physical restoration. Having suffered heroically from chronic tuberculosis that affected her lungs and intestines, she is a powerful intercessor for those battling respiratory illness, lung damage, and wasting diseases. Beyond physical healing, she is most famously invoked for the grace of a happy death, interceding for the dying to trust in the ocean of God's mercy. Her oil is a sacramental of hope and peace, intended for those who feel burdened by their past or by "incurable" illness, reminding them that "the greater the sinner, the greater the right to My mercy

Canon Law Compliance: In accordance with Canon Law, we do not sell first or second-class relics. Your purchase price covers the cost of the materials, the handcrafted design, and the effort required to create these sacramentals.

Relic Anointing Oil (10ml) in Gift Box: Our "secret recipe" oil is housed in a 10ml clear glass bottle with a stainless steel roller ball. It arrives in a custom square golden box featuring a beautiful image of the saint. The inside lid of the box contains the full list of ingredients and usage instructions, making it a perfect and complete gift.
Oil & Prayer Card Set: Includes the 10ml Relic Oil in its golden gift box plus our signature relic prayer card. These cards feature a special transparent window in the corner, allowing you to see the actual fabric relic sealed within the laminate from both sides.
At the heart of our oil blend is Spikenard (Nardo), which we import directly from Israel. This oil holds a sacred place in Catholic tradition as the "precious ointment" used by St. Mary Magdalene to anoint the feet of Jesus (John 12:3). By using this same biblical oil, we aim to evoke the same spirit of devotion, healing, and preparation for the Lord?s work in your own life.
The Recipe: Our blend features Spikenard (Nardo) from Israel, Mediterranean olive leaf, and Rose or Lavender fragrance, all held in a premium Sweet Almond carrier oil. A fabric 3rd-class relic is submerged within the bottle.
Refillable: Because the fabric relic remains in the bottle, you may refill the vessel once it is empty. It will automatically become a 3rd-class relic oil upon contact with the relic. If you do not have access to specific oil blends, we recommend using Extra Virgin Olive Oil for your refills.
The Card: (If selected) 2 5/8in x 5 1/8in (67mm x 130mm). Handcrafted with 8mil photo paper and 5mil lamination with a clear-view relic window.
Usage Note: PLEASE SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE. Spikenard oil is naturally less viscous and will settle at the bottom; this is a sign of the oil's purity and biblical authenticity.
Due to the sacred nature and handcrafted quality of these items, all sales are final. We cannot accept returns on relic oils. Exchanges are permitted on the prayer card only. In the event of shipping damage, please provide photo documentation for a replacement.
