How to use
The Ritual:
In the morning, warm a quarter-sized amount of Calendula Essential Hydrating Cream SPF 30 between your hands and press evenly onto your face, neck, and décolleté.
The Enhanced Ritual:
To ensure complete, lasting coverage: Reapply SPF every 2 hours to maintain optimum UV protection. Swimming or exercising outdoors? Reapply directly after physical activity.
For Maximum Holistic Results:
To increase antioxidant protection: Layering a Vitamin C product (like Vitamin C Revitalizing Lotion or Vitamin C15 Wrinkle Remedy Serum) under your SPF can optimize protection. That’s because as an antioxidant, Vitamin C protects against free radical damage from UV rays, plus pollution and fine dust particles that can clog pores and harm skin.
To protect recently exfoliated skin: If you’ve just done a peel or scrub, your skin is even more sensitive to UV damage than normal. Apply SPF liberally for 48 hours after your enzyme treatment or exfoliation, taking care to ensure high-exposure areas like the forehead and nose are completely covered. Don’t forget your lips, which are one of the most common (and least noticed) places for sun damage. A lip balm with UV protection can go a long way, reapplied about once an hour.
Known for its hearty yellow flowers and calming floral scent, Calendula is an ancient healing ingredient that's used in sacred Hindu ceremonies. Alchemists in medieval Europe used it to soothe dry or irritated skin.

It is perfect for those skin types that are super sensitive and can’t do regular sunscreen due to acne and greasy-ness feeling. This sunscreen absorbs well. The only “ick” I have is the scratchiness of the sunscreen texture when you put it on and how it feels a bit rough to spread but ultimately it is really effective and doesn’t make my face greasy!

I wanted to love this SPF lotion but I just can't give a good review. The lotion has a grittiness to it that feels like sand. It goes on like paste, not a lotion at all. It also leaves a white haze when first applied to my skin. I'll be returning this.
NHNaturopathica Holistic HealthJuly 10, 2024Hi Mary, I know we already spoke over email but I wanted to reply here too. This issue is being solved and I can't wait to get you the new formulation later this month! Stay tuned :)

- JFJulie F.Verified BuyerJune 2, 2024Rated 3 out of 5 starsDisappointed
This cream has a gritty feel to it while applying and leaves your skin with a white tint upon application. Afterwards, my skin didn't feel hydrated. Also, it doesn't hold up if applying prior to swimming. It came off in white globs. I will not be buying this again.

Camesha - RReneeMay 22, 2024Rated 1 out of 5 starsNope! Super scratchy!
SO gritty! Like they put sand in it or something. Unfortunately, we are past the “30 day” window to return the product, so instead, I’ll caution you - SAVE YOUR MONEY. It’s not mildly scratchy, it’s *very* scratchy. My daughter didn’t let me know about this in time, & now we are stuck with it I guess. Do not buy!
