BOTANICAL POWER
Extracts of calendula are well known for the topical treatment of inflamed conditions of all kinds, particularly on sensitive, dry and cracked skin. The plant is rich in natural anti-inflammatory flavonoids, carotenoids, essential oils and sterols that help to reduce skin irritation. Being antimicrobial and antifungal as well, calendula preparations have tissue healing properties and can be used to treat small cuts, scrapes and mild burns.
French lavender is well known for being soothing and skin-calming, reducing inflammation and promoting the healing of wounded skin. Being also an antiseptic due to the presence of natural bioactive compounds such as linalool, lavandulol, geraniol, and eucalyptol, it helps to keep the skin clear from fungus and bacteria.
Lavender essential oil reinforces all the benefits of the plant for a healthy skin. It has a soft and relaxing floral aroma.
SUGGESTION OF USE
