Calendula Officinalis Flower Oil Schlecht Antioxidantien Keine bekannten Vorteile Calendula Officinalis Flower Oil auf einen Blick Essential oil taken from the Calendula officinalis, AKA pot marigold, flower Contains volatile, aromatic skin-sensitizing compounds Has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties Used in cosmetics in concentrations between 0.01-0.1% Calendula Officinalis Flower Oil Beschreibung _Calendula officinalis_ flower oil is the fragrant, volatile oil derived from the flowers of the Calendula officinalis, AKA marigold, plant. It’s used in skin care as a perfuming ingredient with antioxidant properties. Volatile oils, also known as essential oils, can have sensitizing effects on skin including the triggering of redness, tightness and dryness. Although _Calendula officinalis_ flower oil also contains antioxidant and antimicrobial properties that can benefit skin, there are other natural ingredients which can provide these benefits minus the volatile, sensitizing aroma compounds. In cosmetic applications this oil is often found in concentrations between 0.02-0.1%. Those low amounts may not seem too bad from an irritation perspective, but keep in mind that products with one fragrant oil often contain other fragrant oils or fragrance ingredients, leading to a compound effect on skin. Nevertheless, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review Board has deemed the amounts mentioned above safe as used in cosmetics. Verwandte Inhaltsstoffe: Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract Calendula Extract
