Calendula Cream was the first product we ever made, and it's still a favourite. It's whipped with organic shea butter, so it feels light and sinks in quickly, and it's gently fragranced with essential oils of lavender, frankincense, juniper and geranium. Handmade by women in Somerset with homegrown and locally grown herbs.
Strictly speaking, it's a whipped balm: it contains no water, so it needs no preservatives or emulsifiers. It's 100% natural and vegan, for adults and children over 3.
The cream that won our first Gold Medal: Problem Skin, Free From Skincare Awards, 2014
Many customers use it as a daily face moisturiser after oil cleansing, and it works top to toe. It's popular with customers whose skin is prone to eczema or milder rosacea. See the reviews below.

I’ve been suffering from a perioral dermatitis flareup for months. I tried all the off the shelf products and nothing seemed to help, in fact they made it worse. I stripped my skincare routine back to just a cleanser and no makeup, and went on a 3rd lot of antibiotics. It started to improve but my skin became so dry and sore, it was really awful and knocked my confidence. Calendula cream has helped with past flareups, but the off the shelf product I purchased this time round didn’t help at all as it has other chemicals in it. I needed a product that was as natural as possible to help restore my skins microbiome, that’s when I found Lyonsleaf Calendula Cream Natural Emollient. it’s been a total game changer; providing relief from the dryness and has helped my skin heal. I purchased a sample as I was convinced it wasn’t going to work, but I will be buying more having experienced the benefits first hand. It smells amazing too! Great product. Thank you Lyonsleaf.
Good cream for winter
The cream is quickly absorbed and has just a slight fragrance.
Great
Smells lovely, very moisturising and soothing. A little goes a long way. Had several products from lyonsleaf now and impressed with all of them!
I have used many calendula creams, and all have been great products, but Lyonsleaf is the best in my opinion. I love the addition of essential oils which gives it a lovely scent. I would recommend it highly.
The product feels great on the skin and goes a long way. I was delighted to find a natural, UK made product!
I've used this for the dry skin in my ears and it has helped and they are less itchy too.
I've yet to try it on my face.
I have "sun damage" to my scalp resulting in lumps and bumps and very dry skin.
The skin of the arch of my feet tends to crack without treatment.
A daily smear of Calendula cream, it doesn't need much, prevents the cracks and smooths out my scalp
The Calendula cream is now a permanent fixture in our household. Whether to treat eczema or just for nursing dry skin back to health.
Gorgeous! Calming, moisturising and natural. I’m a frequent user and recommended highly.
Best thing about this Calendula Cream is it's 100% Vegan and Pure.
Lovely moisturising product with only pure ingredients.
The fewer ingredients the more pure.

Wonderful products from a wonderful company. Well packaged and swiftly delivered. I always recommend this company and their products to my friends and family and do so unhesitatingly to the world at large!
It's all my skin needs. Nurishing and a pure product, love it!
I use this product mainly in the winter months to combat dry skin on my face. But it can be used anywhere on the body. It is very hydrating and a little goes a long way. I use another lyonsleaf product for the remainder of the year. Love all of the lyonsleaf products i have used.
Love calendula cream so many uses
Really love this product and it seems to help with my adult acne.
Excellent natural and clean product and service. Thanks a lot.
Suffered with perioral dermatitis for the longest time. Bought a sample of this product as I didn’t trust it would work (nothing ever has!) I’ll be honest, I’ve not been them most consistent, however the last few days, I have really tried and seen a real difference! It’s not as dry or red, doesn’t itch andlooks to be clearing up! I’m so excited to that something might actually treat it naturally! Will defo continue…
This is a lovely, gentle moisturising cream with a delicate smell. I bought a sample which has lasted ages and I will buy the full size when it's run out. I use it as a day moisturiser for my sensitive, red skin and it has really calmed my rosacea too.
Been buying this calendula cream for years for my dads psoriasis, the only thing that helped. There's also nothing like it for mosquito bites, it's wonderful.
Amazing product excellent customer service
I love this cream. It's luxurious, smooth, smells wonderful and really does the job on my dry sun dried skin. It's gentlebut effective and a regular for me from now.
Absolutely love this product! Use it for everything! It’s even great under your foundation to stop you getting all dried out!
Wonderful stuff, use daily all over after showering to help keep my elderly parents skin resilient and glowing. It smells divine too :-) and of course love the nature-eco credentials of the company. Just wish they had a reuse system for the jars....
This product keeps my skin well moisturised. I love it.
Thank you so much for this beautiful cream. It's fixed my extremely dry red and sore hands. Everything about it feels beautiful, the smell, the orange colour, the ingredients, the simple glass pot. I have even used it on dry areas on my face and lips as well and it's amazing and feels so healing. Its so lovely having healthy skin again :)
Be careful using it as it's quite runny.
Was effective
I love this cream it is perfect for my face and I have been using nothing else for 18 months since I found it. Great service and quick delivery and all natural, definitely recommend!
Very effective moisturiser. Spritz face with rose water for ease of application.

FAQs
How Quickly do you despatch?

Will my skin react to Lyonsleaf Products
Our products are all 100% natural and free from all artificial chemicals. Because they are water free we can even avoid antimicrobial preservatives and emulsifiers. For this reason it is very unusual for anyone to react to our products at all. However some people are sensitive to essential oils, so if you are super-sensitive please choose unfragranced product options. Even less common, it is possible to be allergic to calendula and other herbs, so it is always important to do a patch test. In the unlikely event that you do have an adverse reaction, you can return your product for a full refund. We also sell samples of most products so you can try before you invest in a big pot.
Why is the pot so small?
Lyonsleaf products are water free and contain only the finest, plant oils, butters natural waxes and mineral ingredients. Most high Street products are up to 80% water, which means you need to apply them much more liberally and frequently. You will find you only need to use Lyonsleaf products very sparingly to achive good hydration that lasts all day. Products that are rich in soothing herbs can be used more frequently to achieve the best calming effect, but they still only need to be used sparingly. So these little pots go a long way, using less packaging and less transportation resources.
Are Lyonsleaf products vegan?
Much of the Lyonsleaf range is vegan, but we do use organic beeswax in some products. When it came to choosing a suitable wax, we decided it would be better for the environment to choose a farming method that promotes pollinators rather than a vegetable mono-crop that causes deforestation and loss of habitat. We only use organic beeswax as organic farming standards require farmers to have high welfare standards for Bees.
