A savior for all skin-related plights, the petals of marigolds are as physically beneficial as they are beautiful
There’s more to pot marigolds than just good looks
Calendula petals contain unique anti-inflammatory properties, especially useful in soothing inflamed (bruised, burned, wounded or sore) and itchy (bites, rashes, eczema and diaper irritations) skin situations.
The oil is also very useful for therapeutic and relaxation massage treatments. You can use calendula oil as is, applying it sparingly directly to the skin. Or, you can use calendula oil as a base for herbal salves and creams.
To make calendula oil, you need to infuse oil (olive or grape seed) with the flowers.
To use the oil, simply decant as required and apply directly to skin.
