Calendula

The calming botanical behind our Balance Oil.

Calendula (Calendula officinalis), also known as pot marigold, is one of the most well-studied calming botanicals in natural skincare — traditionally used to soothe irritated, reactive and inflamed skin.

What does Calendula do for skin?

• Calms redness and inflammation — traditionally used for irritated or reactive skin conditions.
• Supports the skin's barrier — helping skin retain moisture and recover from irritation.
• Gentle enough for sensitive and acne-prone skin, including body breakouts, folliculitis and general congestion.
• Naturally antimicrobial properties, which is part of why it pairs so well with breakout-prone skin.

How we use it

Our Balance Oil is Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil macerated with Calendula Officinalis — a slow infusion process that draws the plant's calming properties into the oil, rather than a quick-extract or synthetic version. Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract Powder is also part of the ingredient blend in both our Green and Pink Clay Bum > Beyond Masks.

Is Calendula good for body acne and folliculitis?

Yes — its calming, anti-inflammatory profile is one of the reasons Balance Oil is formulated specifically for acne-prone, sensitive, and reactive skin, whether that's on the face, the body, or areas prone to folliculitis and buttne.
