Kamelya Calendula Oil

Description and Uses of Calendula Macerate

Calendula macerate (Calendula officinalis) is obtained by macerating the flowers in a virgin vegetable oil, using a traditional method that preserves their soothing properties. Used for centuries for its softening effects, it helps to soothe the appearance of redness and irritation while providing an immediate sensation of comfort on sensitive or fragile skin.

Rich in natural antioxidants and flavonoids, it helps maintain the suppleness and softness of the skin and helps to visibly improve its appearance after external aggressions such as wind, cold, or sun exposure. This macerate is recognized for its apparent restorative action and its ability to provide soothing and protection to the most delicate skin, including that of babies.
