Marigold Flower Powder Calendula Officinalis - Bulk - 500G

Marigold Flower Powder is a finely milled botanical made from Calendula officinalis flowers, valued for its warm golden colour and versatility across food, tea, and DIY cosmetic use. Also known as calendula, it has a long history in herbal traditions and is commonly used in infused oils, simple water infusions, bath blends, and handmade botanical recipes.

The powder format is easy to measure and blends smoothly into masks, scrubs, soaps, and other formulations where an evenly dispersed plant ingredient is preferred. In a bulk format, it is especially practical for repeat making, refill-style use, and larger batch food or cosmetic projects. Why we love it: Marigold feels like sunshine in powder form.

We love the naturally rich golden tone, the way it moves so easily between tea, oil infusions, and botanical beauty recipes, and how useful it is for makers who want colour and plant character from the ingredient itself. It is exactly the kind of ingredient we value at Essentially Natural: versatile, naturally expressive, and beautifully suited to both food and cosmetic making.
