A Calming Body Oil of Calendula & Sweet Almond

Calendula Body Oil is a gentle, multi-purpose oil for dry and sensitive skin, used on the body after bathing, on the face, or on dry patches and the scalp. Whole calendula flowers are slowly infused into cold-pressed sweet almond oil and finished with plant-based vitamin E, leaving skin soft, calm and comfortable.

The Herbs

Calendula Body Oil brings together a traditional skin herb and a nourishing oil. Calendula flowers soothe and comfort dry, delicate skin, while cold-pressed sweet almond oil and vitamin E moisturise and protect. Together they make an oil for soft, comfortable skin from face to feet.

To Soothe

Calendula Flower (Calendula officinalis): Traditionally valued for its skin-soothing properties, used for centuries to comfort dry, delicate and weathered skin and support its natural renewal.

To Nourish

Sweet Almond Oil (Prunus amygdalus dulcis): A light, nourishing oil rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin E that moisturises the skin and supports its natural protective barrier.

Plant-Based Vitamin E (Tocopherol): A natural antioxidant that protects both the oil and the skin from everyday environmental stress.

Texture & Scent

Texture: Light and silky, absorbing comfortably without a greasy finish.

Scent: Barely scented: soft, natural and gentle enough for sensitive skin.

Specifications

Size: 50ml amber glass bottle with pipette

Base: Cold-pressed sweet almond oil

Suitable for: Face, body and scalp. 100% plant-based

Sweet Almond Oil (Prunus amygdalus dulcis) infused with Calendula Flowers (Calendula officinalis), Tocopherol (Plant-Based Vitamin E).

After Bathing: Pat the skin until slightly damp, warm 1–2 full pipettes between the palms and smooth over the body, especially the arms, legs, elbows, knees and shoulders.

On the Face: Warm 2–3 drops on clean fingertips and press gently onto the face and neck, morning or evening, alone or before a moisturiser.

On Dry Areas: Massage 2–3 drops into elbows, knees, hands, heels or dry patches of the scalp, as needed.

Safety & Cautions

External Use Only: This product is intended for topical application to the skin and scalp only.

Patch Test: If you have particularly sensitive or allergy-prone skin, we recommend performing a patch test on a small area of the inner forearm 24 hours before first use.

Pregnancy, Breastfeeding & Medical Conditions: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, taking prescription medication, or have an underlying medical condition, please consult your healthcare professional or contact one of our Medical Herbalists before use.

A Skin Care Ritual

Oil Damp Skin: Straight after a bath or shower, to seal in moisture.

Protect in Cold Weather: Gloves outdoors, and the oil applied more often through winter.

Drink and Eat Well: Water through the day, with healthy fats, nuts, seeds and oily fish.

Calendula is the gentlest of the skin herbs in Western practice, traditionally used on dry, reactive and sensitive skin. This oil is simply calendula flowers infused into sweet almond oil, with nothing else added but vitamin E.

Yes — sweet almond oil is the base, so this product is not suitable if you have a nut allergy.

The oil is light and absorbs quickly, with two ingredients. The balm is a rich fifteen-herb preparation in shea and jojoba, for much drier skin. Start with the oil if your skin is simply dry; the balm is for skin that needs more.

Many people with dry or sensitive skin choose Calendula Body Oil as part of their everyday skincare routine because Calendula and Sweet Almond Oil help nourish the skin and support its natural protective barrier. While this is a cosmetic product and not intended to treat medical skin conditions, it may help improve skin comfort and moisturise areas that feel dry, tight or sensitive.

Yes. The oil has been formulated for regular daily use and can be applied once or twice each day as part of your normal skincare routine.

Yes. Calendula Body Oil is gentle enough for facial application. Massage 2–3 drops onto clean skin morning or evening, either on its own as a lightweight facial oil or before your regular moisturiser for additional botanical nourishment.

Earthy and quiet rather than floral or sweet. Vetiver leads it — a dry, smoky root note — with sandalwood underneath, cypress for greenness and a lift of bergamot. It is closer to a perfume than to a scented body lotion.

Vetiver is the root of a tall tropical grass, and one of the few perfume materials that smells of earth rather than flowers. It is deep, dry and slightly smoky, and it anchors the whole blend.

Anyone pregnant or breastfeeding, and anyone with high blood pressure, heart or kidney disease, or low potassium, because of the liquorice. Children under two. If you take prescribed medicine, particularly for blood pressure or a diuretic, speak to your doctor or one of our Medical Herbalists first.
