Calendula-Infused Oils

Gentle botanical care for dry, delicate-feeling skin.
The calendula oil we use is made with certified-organic Calendula officinalis flower extract in certified-organic, cold-pressed sunflower seed oil, with natural vitamin E.
Calendula flowers do not produce a traditional pressed oil. Instead, their oil-soluble botanical compounds are extracted and carried in a nourishing plant oil.
The Science
Calendula flowers contain several groups of naturally occurring plant compounds, including carotenoids, flavonoids, and triterpenoids. These compounds have been studied for their antioxidant and skin-soothing properties.
In our calendula oil, sunflower seed oil acts as both the extraction medium and the carrier oil. It provides essential fatty acids—particularly linoleic acid—and functions as a lightweight emollient that helps soften and condition the skin.
Natural vitamin E contributes additional antioxidant protection and helps slow oxidation within the oil.
In skincare, calendula-infused oil helps:
- Condition dry, delicate-feeling skin
- Support a softer, smoother skin surface
- Provide lightweight emollient moisture
- Calm the uncomfortable feel of dryness
- Deliver calendula’s oil-soluble botanical compounds
Why We Use It
We use calendula-infused oil to bring gentle botanical conditioning to our richer balm formula. It complements tallow, shea butter, and beeswax while helping the finished balm spread smoothly over dry, vulnerable-feeling areas.
On the Skin
Calendula-infused oil helps dry, delicate-feeling skin feel softer, calmer, and comfortably nourished. The sunflower oil provides lightweight conditioning while the calendula extract adds gentle botanical support.
