Is calendula oil suitable for vulvar care?
Calendula oil (Calendula officinalis) is particularly suitable for intimate care thanks to its anti-inflammatory, healing, and soothing properties. It contains flavonoids and triterpenes, such as faradiol, which inhibit the enzymes responsible for skin inflammation. These active compounds give it notable effectiveness in soothing sensitive and irritated mucous membranes. Applied externally, calendula oil can be used to relieve irritation, itching, or discomfort related to imbalances in the intimate flora. It is also beneficial in cases of dryness or after sexual intercourse, providing natural hydration without disturbing the physiological balance of the intimate area.
