Common Uses: Calendula Oil is an infused or macerated herbal oil that is widely known for its healing properties for slow healing wounds, bed sores, cuts, and burns. It is derived from marigold flowers and has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which make it effective in soothing and repairing damaged skin. It can also be used on broken capillaries, varicose veins, bruises, and eczema. Calendula Oil is a natural astringent that tightens and firms the skin, making it an excellent ingredient in anti-aging and firming formulations. It is gentle and soothing, making it suitable for sensitive and delicate skin. The oil can also be used to heal babies’ bottoms and soothe diaper rash.
To use Calendula Oil, apply it directly to the affected area, or mix it with other carrier oils or essential oils to create healing salves and ointments. The addition of Calendula CO2 extract and healing essential oils can further enhance the oil's healing properties. It can also be used as a compress for chapped and dry skin. It is recommended to store the oil in a cool, dark place and rebottle into smaller sizes as the oil is used.
