Calendula (Calendula officinalis)
Calendula has been used for centuries. It can be used both internally and externally to support the immune system, help heal skin and infections. How Calendula works topically is by promoting cell repair and growth, coupled with its natural antiseptic, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties. Calendula is above all a remedy for the skin providing effective care for most minor skin problems. Calendula is mainly used for eczema, cuts, grazes and wounds; for red and inflamed skin including minor burns and sunburn for acne and minor rashes.
Above all, it is gentle in its work. Unlike other herbs, you don’t need to worry about “overdoing it” with calendula.
The most potent medicinal oils within the calendula blooms are concentrated on the sticky green base of the flower head – the sepal and receptacle, though some resin is also present on the petals themselves. This is why we choose to use whole dried flowers rather than pluck the petals alone when making calendula-infused oil
We have calendula as a salve, oil and as a tincture. It is also the base in our pet balm, face and body balms and facial oils due to its amazing anti inflammatory properties! All of the products can be found at our shop!
