Love it: The Organic Skin Co.’s Calming Calendula Cream

Anyone who reads this blog regularly – can I just say I love you? – will know that I really get excited about a great multitasker. They make life easier when you’re super busy, they make packing lighter when you travel and they leave a lot more space in your bathroom cabinet for more frivolous things. What’s not to love?
The latest that I’ve got my hot little hands on is The Organic Skin Co.’s Calming Calendula Cream, a multi-tasking skincare essential which harnesses the natural healing and calming powers of Calendula, a marigold-like flower which has been used for centuries in herbal medicines and is well known for its excellent skincare properties. Used by my mum for years before I was born, it naturally helps to nourish the skin; softening and soothing dry and weathered skin conditions and can aid in healing wounds, inflamed skin and most minor skin problems.
In this little tube it’s combined with a powerhouse combination of skin rewarding ingredients including; Sea Buckthorn, Jojoba Seed Oil, Shea Nut, Rosehip Oil, Vitamin E, Turmeric and Lemon to soothe, heal, hydrate and protect the skin while the inclusion of sweet smelling Vanilla Oil relaxes the mind. Yum! The hero ingredient Calendula helps the skin knit back together quickly whilst also acting as an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory agent.
Megan Douglas - Naturopath, Medical Herbalist and creator of River Veda and The Organic Skin Co. – says that she uses it for pretty much everything, “as it has so many different applications; on my lips when they get overly dry, when mosquitoes bite and an inflammatory reaction ensues, when cuticles get damaged and skin is left raw, or simply when I can’t find a hand cream. It’s also great for annoying skin irritations, either on the face or body which easily happen when we age or stress but can be quickly healed with a regular dab of Calming Calendula Cream.”
For best results, first cleanse the affected area thoroughly and then apply a small amount of The Organic Skin Co Calming Calendula Cream. However, if the need for replenishment is more severe, the cream can be applied two to three times daily.
Finally, like every product in The Organic Skin Co. line, this cream has been certified organic by ECOCERT and is manufactured in accordance with strict environmental and ethical practices, using the cleanest, most advanced technology available. All of the ingredients used are clearly listed in the packaging and more than 99 per cent of them are of natural origin.
