Calendula is excellent for your face

Calendula is one of the most healing, anti-inflammatory, antiviral herbs on the planet. It’s easily harvested and extracted and looks beautiful whether the flowers are in a pot or steeping in a large glass jar. It can be made into a cream, oil, gel, compress, tincture or tea; used in a bath or facial steam; eaten in salads and stews; whipped into toothpastes or mixed into mouthwashes; and is gentle enough for babies and the elderly! 

Anti-inflammatory and Anti- bacterial: in earlier times, it was often used to disinfect wounds, and treat burns and skin infections (like ringworms and athlete’s foot). Documented reports also reveal that in earlier times, calendula oil was even used as a treatment against staphylococcus infections as the oil effectively killed the nasty bacteria that ate away at the flesh. 

These days, the essence, extract or oil of calendula is incorporated into emollients and washes to fortify healing effects – calendula-infused products are still used by people who want to naturally aid the healing process of their wounds. It’s commonly used to treat acne, dermatitis, diaper rashes, dry skin, eczema, insect bites, and hemorrhoids. 

Antioxident Rich- Calendula is rich in antioxidants like carotenoids, vitamin A pre-cursors, that help to swipe away free radicals which can cause premature aging. It’s also very rich in tocopherols, or vitamin E, another antioxidant with amazing skin softening abilities. In addition, some preliminary studies who's the linolenic acid in calendula oil may also help reduce photo aging from the sun. 


Brightening and Regenerating- Calendula is an all-natural skin brightener effective at reducing the appearance of scars. Studies reveal that the extract of this herb blossom can stimulate the production of collagen which is important in proper skin regeneration so for those with dull skin who want to regain their youthful, glowing skin, calendula-infused toners and moisturizers can surely do the trick.
