Calendula Infused Secret Beauty Oil

The Calendula flower has many healing benefits. Commonly, this plant is referred to as Marigold. It originally got the name Marigold from the Virgin Mary. Many Catholics use the flower during events to honor Mary. It gained popularity in the 14th century for fighting the plague and was used in recipes to improve health.

Aside from its ties with the Catholic church, this flower is also valued in the Hindu religion. Hindus adorn their gods with this flower but also use it to add vibrant color to foods and fabrics.

Jade Bloom’s Calendula oil is made by submerging the flowers in 100% pure olive and apricot oil.
The result is a soothing oil that is great for improving the skin.
