Why You Need a Calendula Balm in Your Skincare Arsenal

When it comes to natural skincare, there’s one botanical ingredient that has stood the test of time: calendula (calendula officinalis). Widely used in herbalism and known for its vibrant orange or yellow petals, calendula is more than just a beautiful flower. It’s a powerhouse of healing, soothing, and nourishing properties, making our Land & Ritual Calendula Balm an essential component in your skincare arsenal. 

Unlike a traditional calendula creams or ointments, our Calendula Balm is entirely anhydrous—crafted with a blend of pure cold pressed organic olive oil, precious CO2 extracts, locally sourced beeswax, and rich kokum butter.

This concentrated formula delivers the potent benefits of calendula without any added water, ensuring a deeply nourishing and protective experience for your skin. Each ingredient is chosen for its exceptional quality and ability to soothe and restore. This Calendula Balm is a must-have for targeted skincare.

1. Natural Healing Power

Calendula is renowned for its healing abilities and is ideal for those dealing with minor cuts, scrapes, or other skin irritations and conditions. Packed with anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and skin supportive properties. Our Calendula Balm contains infused Calendula oil as well as CO2 extracts of Calendula, Chia Seed, and Pomegranate Seed. Locally sourced beeswax creates a protective barrier over the skin, allowing ingredients to work their magic while keeping the affected area moisturized, protected and safe from further irritation. 

2. Soothes Sensitive Skin

If you have sensitive skin, finding products that won’t cause further irritation or discomfort can be a challenge. Our Calendula Balm is a gentle, natural solution that can help calm and soothe sensitive skin. Particularly beneficial for conditions like eczema, rosacea, and dermatitis, where inflammation and irritation are common. The soothing properties of calendula work to reduce redness and calm irritated skin, providing relief without harsh chemicals.

3. Deep Moisturization

Calendula isn’t just about healing; it’s also an excellent moisturizer. The rich, nourishing base of our Calendula Balm— made with organic cold pressed oils, CO2 extracts and kokum butter—work in tandem with calendula to provide deep hydration. This makes it an ideal choice for dry, cracked skin. Whether you’re dealing with chapped lips, rough elbows, or dry hands, a swipe of calendula balm can restore your skin’s moisture and leave it feeling soft and supple.

4. Perfect for Baby’s Skin

Babies have delicate, sensitive skin that requires extra care.
