ARNICA OIL 100% ORGANIC PURE INFUSED OIL ~125ML
Soothe Heal Repair
Arnica is a perennial flower related to the sunflower. It has a yellow-orange colour and resembles a daisy, except that its flower has soft, furry leaves. It doesn't have a flowery smell, but a very pleasant sweet woody odour.
Ingredients
Crafted in small batches using a premium blend of 100% Certified Organic Arnica flowers, premium MCT (fractionated) coconut oil, and Vitamin E. The arnica flowers are slow infused to gently extract their natural botanical properties, creating a lightweight, non-greasy body oil that absorbs beautifully into the skin. MCT coconut oil is chosen for its excellent stability, while Vitamin E is valued for its antioxidant properties, helping to nourish and condition the skin while also supporting the freshness of the oil. Proudly handmade in Australia using carefully selected, high-quality ingredients.
