Calendula CO₂ Extract is a concentrated botanical extract derived from the flowers of Calendula officinalis using supercritical carbon dioxide, a gentle, solvent‑free method that preserves the plant’s full spectrum of beneficial lipids, phytosterols, carotenoids, and antioxidants.

This extract is richer and more complete than an infusion or simple oil, with a warm, herbaceous character and a thick, almost resinous texture that blends beautifully into oil‑based skincare formulations. Traditionally prized for centuries, calendula’s constituents support skin’s resilience, comfort, and natural regenerative balance, making it especially wonderful in serums, balms, and rich moisturizers for dry, sensitive, or mature skin.

At M. Carya, we honor this extract for its depth and celebrate calendula’s calming presence in formulas that are gentle by design and richly supportive to the skin.
