Calendula is a well-known and versatile healing herb which has been used for centuries by herbalists. Our Calendula infused Oil is made by steeping Calendula flowers in Sunflower Oil. Calendula has many properties including being antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, stimulates the immune system, assisting the body in fighting infections and promoting skin tissue repair to help minimise scar formation.
It is essential in formulas for chapped skin, sensitive skin (including for children), razor burn, makeup removers, after-sun products, and insect bites (lotion, cream, or balm). In soap making, it can be used up to 30% in formulations for sensitive skin.
