The Benefits of Calendula Oil for Sensitive Dog Skin & Paws
Calendula officinalis
What is Calendula Oil and Where Does It Come From?
Calendula oil is derived from the bright orange and yellow flowers of the Calendula plant (Calendula officinalis), commonly known as Pot Marigold. Originally native to the Mediterranean region, Calendula has been traditionally valued for centuries in botanical skincare applications. Today, Calendula is widely recognised as one of the gentlest plant-based ingredients used in skin care formulations.
Why We Use Calendula Oil
Gentle Botanical Support
Calendula has long been appreciated for its gentle nature, making it a popular ingredient in formulations designed for sensitive and delicate skin.
Supports Skin Comfort
Environmental factors such as rough surfaces, grass exposure, and daily activity can affect skin appearance. Calendula oil helps support comfortable, healthy-looking skin as part of a balanced skincare routine.
Suitable for Sensitive Areas
Calendula oil is often selected for products intended for delicate areas such as paw pads, skin folds, elbows, and other irritation-prone regions.
Naturally Plant-Derived
Derived from flower petals, Calendula oil provides a naturally sourced botanical option that aligns with our commitment to simple and thoughtful ingredients.
Is Calendula Oil Safe for Dogs?
Calendula oil is commonly used in pet skincare products when properly formulated. At Derm Assist Botanicals, Calendula oil is blended with carefully selected carrier oils to create a gentle formula suitable for everyday use.
As with any topical product, we recommend patch testing before first use and avoiding contact with the eyes.
