Description & Uses

Calendula has a centuries-old reputation as one of herbalism’s most gentle and useful skin-care plants. Our Calendula Infused Oil captures the oil-soluble constituents of Calendula officinalis flowers in a nourishing Sweet Almond Oil base, creating an easy-to-use botanical oil for everyday skin care.

Traditionally described as soothing and skin-conditioning, Calendula is frequently incorporated into preparations intended for dry, delicate, irritated, or weather-stressed skin. Its naturally occurring carotenoids, flavonoids, triterpenoids, and other plant compounds contribute to its enduring popularity in restorative botanical skincare.

The Sweet Almond Oil base provides an additional layer of nourishment, supplying naturally occurring oleic and linoleic fatty acids that help soften and condition the skin while supporting its natural moisture barrier.

Calendula Infused Oil is a wonderful ingredient for facial and body oils, salves, balms, creams, after-sun products, massage blends, and other gentle skincare formulations.

Traditional Uses: soothing skin care, skin conditioning, dry-skin support, minor skin-stress routines, botanical balms and salves, gentle family skincare.

As with all natural products, perform a patch test prior to first use, especially for sensitive or reactive skin. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
