Calendula Body Oil
A well-known benefit of calendula extract is its ability to help reduce irritation, particularly for those with already sensitive skin.
One of calendula’s most notable benefits in terms of skincare is its ability to help protect the skin from oxidative stress. Calendula flowers are rich in antioxidant compounds, including flavonoids, polyphenols, and carotenoids. These antioxidants help neutralize free radicals, limiting the effect they can have on the skin.
Calendula flower extract is rich in various skin-friendly oils. Calendula seeds typically include a high concentration of linoleic and calendic acid. Linoleic acid is the most abundant fatty acid in the skin’s natural moisture barrier and is involved in maintaining the skin barrier’s proper functioning.
