Calendula macerate is one of the gentlest and most effective botanical oils for sensitive, reactive, and compromised skin — two ingredients, nothing more.

🏵️ Soothing & anti-inflammatory — Calendula flower extract is a recognized botanical anti-inflammatory; it calms redness, irritation, and reactive skin on contact.

🌻 Nourishing & softening — Sunflower seed oil, rich in linoleic acid, reinforces the skin's natural lipid barrier, softens texture, and leaves no heaviness.

🔄 Repairing & cicatrizant — supports skin barrier recovery and helps fade minor blemishes, scars, and areas of chronic dryness.

💧 Deeply moisturizing — absorbs readily without occlusion; suitable for face, body, and hair — from newborns to mature skin.

Organic Marigold Flower Extract (Calendula officinalis)

• Soothes redness, irritation, and reactive skin on contact.
• Supports the skin barrier and helps it recover from dryness or stress.
• Promotes skin repair — especially helpful for chapped, tight, or damaged skin.
• Gentle enough for sensitive, baby, and reactive skin types.

Organic Sunflower Seed Oil (Helianthus annuus)

• Rich in linoleic acid (omega-6), which reinforces the skin's natural lipid barrier.
• Deeply moisturizes without heaviness — absorbs quickly and leaves no greasy residue.
• Softens and revitalizes dry, rough, or tired skin.
• Acts as the carrier that delivers the calendula extract deep into the skin.

💡 Usage Recommendations

Skin application — Apply a few drops pure or blended with other vegetable or essential oils to clean, dry skin. Massage gently until fully absorbed. Particularly suited to the face, neck, décolleté, hands, lips, feet, and the whole body.

Capillary — Apply a small amount to the scalp and hair lengths. Massage into the scalp to stimulate circulation and regulate sebum production. Leave on for at least 30 minutes before shampooing, or use as a leave-in treatment on the lengths for dry or damaged hair.

Cosmetic ingredient — Incorporate into homemade cosmetic formulations (creams, balms, serums, lip care) as a nourishing, soothing, and repairing active base. Recommended usage rate: 5–100% of the formula depending on the application.

Pets — Apply topically to minor skin irritations, dry patches, or small wounds on animals. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not use on cats without veterinary advice, as they may ingest the oil during grooming.
