Calendula Cream uses calendula tincture in a moisturising cream base with grapeseed oil, glycerine and gentle emulsifiers.

The grapeseed oil and glycerine are there to help soften the skin and hold moisture where it is needed.
This makes Calendula Cream useful when you want a herbal cream with a proper moisturising base behind it. The calendula does the familiar skin-comfort work, while the oils and humectants make the cream more supportive for dry patches. Calendula has a long history of use in topical skin care, especially where calm and softness matter.
