Flora Secret presents Calendula Oil. This is a 100% natural carrier oil, which is valued for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and regenerative properties. As a rule, it is obtained by steeping Calendula officinalis (marigold) flowers in a carrier oil, for example, olive oil or sunflower seed oil.
Composition. Calendula oil contains a high concentration of carotenoids (15 kinds), flavonoids (8 kinds), phytosterols (11 kinds). In addition, this oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids (their content depends on the carrier oil that was used to steep calendula flowers).

It speeds up the healing of first degree burns and other minor skin injuries, normalises sebum secretion in the epidermis, prevents greasy complexion, reduces the appearance of pores, combats acne and furunculosis, and treats bed sores.
Besides, this oil can be used to take everyday care of normal and oiliness-prone skin, babies’ skin, and the skin of the breasts during lactation.
