Derived from macerating calendula (marigold) flowers in vegetable oil, it concentrates the plant’s soothing, anti-inflammatory, and regenerating properties. Gentle, versatile, and well tolerated, it provides a natural response to skin discomfort.

A must-have for anyone seeking gentle and protective skincare.

  

ORIGIN OF CALENDULA OIL

Calendula officinalis, also known as marigold, is a bright yellow-orange flower praised for its healing benefits. In cosmetics, the flowers are macerated in a vegetable oil (commonly sunflower or olive) to create a calendula oil rich in anti-inflammatory and skin-repairing compounds (flavonoids, triterpenes, carotenoids…)

It’s suitable for all ages and all skin types, including the most sensitive.
