Calendula Extract for Sensitive Skin and Baby Care
The Golden Healer: Calendula Extract in Sensitive-Skin Care
In the evolving skincare landscape, Calendula officinalis has stood the test of time. Known as the "golden healer," this vibrant botanical has been revered for centuries in traditional medicine, especially for treating wounds, soothing inflamed skin, and accelerating the body’s natural repair processes. But in today’s clean-label, efficacy-driven world, how does Calendula continue to shine?
With Calendula BioFerment , we’ve taken this ancient flower and reimagined it for modern skin science—through biofermentation.
Why Bio-fermented Calendula?
Our Calendula BioFerment is an bacterial-fermented extract of Calendula officinalis flowers. By avoiding oil-soluble fractions and instead concentrating the water-soluble bioactives—primarily flavonoids and phenolic acids—we enhance bioavailability for sensitive-skin and also baby-care products.
But what makes Calendula such a remarkable skin-repair ingredient?
The Science Behind Calendula's Skin Regeneration Power
Numerous studies have investigated Calendula’s efficacy in wound healing, tissue regeneration, and inflammation modulation. Key bioactives responsible for these effects include:
Flavonoids: These plant-based antioxidants scavenge free radicals, modulate NF-κB and MAPK pathways, and reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-1β.
Phenolic acids: Known for their antioxidant and antimicrobial effects, they support tissue remodeling.
Polysaccharides: Essential for re-epithelialization during wound healing.
Product Range — Baby Care
What sets Calendula BioFerment apart is its gentle profile. Its water-based matrix makes it ideal for:
Soothing diaper rash creams
Post-cleansing baby lotions
Barrier repair balms
This makes it a formulator’s dream ingredient—high-performing and microbiome-friendly.
Support for Sensitive Formulations
From eczema-prone skin to post-treatment soothing, Calendula’s multi-targeted bioactivity positions it as a must-have in sensitive-skin solutions. Thanks to biofermentation, these water-soluble actives are not only more available but also better tolerated by the skin—no essential oils, no irritation, no compromise.
