Calendula infused facial oil is a natural skincare product made by steeping dried calendula flowers in a carrier oil, such as jojoba oil, almond oil, or olive oil. The oil extracts the beneficial properties of the calendula flowers, creating a product that is rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory compounds, and antibacterial properties.
