Admirable Arnica Flower Carrier Oil is a happy, yellow mountain flower extract that is essential to any aromatic apothecary! The formidable flower finds its forte in care of the skin.

For centuries, Arnica oil was made as an herbal infusion. The flower petals were soaked in olive oil for weeks or even months to unleash their petal power. Living Libations Arnica Flower Oil is a unique offering as it is extracted by the CO2 method of distillation to capture far more flower-power including all of its unique waxes, fatty acids, and resins, and trace elements that are above and beyond any infused version of Arnica oil.
"[Arnica essential oil] is occasionally used in perfumes and other cosmetic preparations,
as well as in hair tonics and anti-dandruff lotions."
