Zinc and Calendula Cream for Skin Care

Calendula cream with added zinc magic

Zinc and Calendula Cream is our 100% natural, award-winning, soothing emollient and barrier cream with a potent dose of our organic calendula and non-nano zinc oxide at 18%. It is suitable for use on the face and body for adults, children and babies from 4 weeks. It's won multiple awards as a nappy rash cream. We have a lot of customers with dry skin and skin prone to eczema, perioral dermatitis, acne and rosacea who also love this product (see customer reviews). 

100% Natural Facial Routine

Because zinc is a natural, gentle astringent, those with potentially oily skin can use it to keep sebum levels in perfect balance. Use more often when skin is oily and less often if the skin is dry until you find the perfect natural facial routine for your skin. 

Be sure to use sparingly and rub in well - if you look white, you have used too much! If the whiteness on your face is an issue you can use it with powder mineral foundation to match your skin tone. The powder foundation can be applied over the top of the Zinc and Calendula Cream with a kabuki or powder brush, or mix the powder with Zinc and Calendula Cream in your palm to create a liquid foundation. We also sell colour correctors and a whole range of mineral make-up for a non-reactive, 100% natural facial routine that will conceal, even skin tone and calm irritation while nourishing and protecting.

We suggest you begin using Zinc and Calendula Cream once a day after oil cleansing with a Lyonsleaf Beauty Balm and then assess if you need to use it more often or less often. Whilst zinc oxide can have a drying effect on the skin, in some cases this is part of the skin's normal recovery process. We recommend you research online and try to talk to other people who have used zinc oxide products to improve problem skin. Cosmetic regulations prevent us discussing these issues on our website.

Zinc and Calendula Cream is an ideal emollient barrier cream. It forms a breathable, protective and moisture repellent barrier. So, it is perfect for babies' bottoms, hands that are often in water or to protect fragile skin when bathing. Be warned! - it's so water repellent it won't easily wash off of clothes or cloth nappies. We have won many awards for this product in Nappy Cream, Problem Skin and Hand Care categories.

Zinc and Calendula Cream is rich in ceramides and essential fatty acids which are vital for maintaining good skin barrier and healthy skin function.
