What Is Calendula Infused Grapeseed Oil?
Escentia Calendula Infused Grapeseed Oil is created using a traditional maceration process, where the vibrant orange and yellow petals of Calendula officinalis are slowly infused into lightweight grapeseed oil (Vitis vinifera). This gentle method allows the beneficial plant compounds to be transferred into the carrier oil without harsh processing.
Calendula has been valued for centuries in herbal and skincare traditions, particularly for its calming and skin-supportive properties, making it a popular ingredient in natural skincare and body-care formulations.
