Cool Citrus C-Weed Toner

At Starflower Essentials we use only the highest quality ingredients in our organic skin care line. The other day we discussed calendula and it's many properties, it's use in skin care and the origins of this wonderful ingredient. Today, we are going to talk about one of our favorite and most popular skin care products - Cool Citrus C-Weed Toner Mist.

Cool Citrus C-Weed Toner Mist

This isn't just any citrus toner using scents from common oils like orange and lemon. We've brought this toner to a higher octave by including rare, rejuvenating essential oils of Neroli (named after an Italian Princess of Neroli who loved the wonderful scent of orange flowers wafting through her window when in bloom), Mandarin and Petitgrain. Combine this with natural, high potency Vitamin C and North Atlantic Seaweed and it's a winner for oxygenating, remineralizing the skin and refining pores.



Neroli oil is produced from the blossom of the bitter orange tree.


What makes this wonderful organic beauty product so amazing is that it is great for all skin types. Use it at home daily for morning and night skin rituals. Cool Citrus C-Weed Toner is a great travel refresher, immune booster and germ killer.

Calendula - Calendula Officinalis

At Starflower Essentials our focus is not only on providing our customers with holistic, food grade organic skin care  products, but also on educating our customers on what goes into our products. Often we hear of a featured single "wonder" ingredient in a skin care product. Each of our ingredients, separetly, could be considered a "wonder" ingredient. At Starflower we blend these vital ingredients together to produce a more potent, long lasting result.

An ingredient we use frequently in our products is Calendula (Calendula officinalis).

Calendula Officinalis

The calendula flower, or pot marigold,  is part of the daisy family and consists of about 12-20 different species. It is most commonly grown from the Mediterranian region to Iran.



Calendula is one of the most valuable herbs for soothing and healing inflammatory conditions of the skin. It stimulates formation of new tissue and gently promotes blood circulation within the cellular structure of the skin.

Dried Calendula

As with all herbs and oils, their uses go back to before the days of modern medicing. Calendula has been used historically as a digestive aid, but has also been known for having anti-inflammatory and anti-viral properties.

Calendula, as used in organic skin care is wonderful for irritated and inflammed skin due to being highly concentrated with carotenoids (vitamin A like compounds), mucilage, glycosides and sterols. It is an essential ingredient for burns, scars and eczema.

The petals of the calendula flower work well in food as well due to its renown properties as a digestive aid. The flower can be used in a variety of foods such as salads, dips and rice. Always check your plants first though before ingesting.

At Starflower Essentials we would recommend for irritated and inflammed skin a regimen that start's with our Rose Cream Cleanser which is a chemical free creamy emulsion that lifts dirt and inpurties. Next, we would recommend that you use our Rose Gold Nutrient Face Toner. Follow with one of our gentle exfoliants and our Herbal Facial Steam one to two times per week. Lastly we would suggest one of our Nutrient Intensive Moisturizers.
