Helichrysum beauty benefits are precious, just like this beautiful oil!

This oil is a gift in all clearing skin and acne scars treatments.

Helichrysum, or Immortelle, is a beloved ingredient in the clean skin care industry. And with a name like Immortelle, its hard to believe this plant has anything but magical properties.

This botanical powerhouse is full of our favorite things: antioxidants, flavonoids, hydration, and soothing properties. Conventional skin care products use several different synthetic ingredients to achieve the anti-aging benefits that are all found in this one plant.

What is helichrysum?

Helichrysum, or Immortelle, comes from a flowering plant in the daisy family, Helichrysum italicum.

The word helichrysum comes from the Greek word helios, or sun, and chrysos, or gold—in reference to the golden yellow flowers of the plant. Immortelle, is also a name in reference to the flowers, which blossom for a long period of time.

Skin care uses and benefits

Helichrysum is a darling of the natural skin care world. When used in skin care products, it is typically used in essential oil form.

It is rumored that the name Immortelle is also in reference to the plant’s incredible anti-aging benefits. Helichrysum is an emollient, moisturizing oil that can help reduce the appearance of age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, and even the appearance of skin tone and texture.

Environmental stressors

Stocked full of antioxidants, this oil can also help protect against environmental stressors. Antioxidants help revive the skin to it’s full radiance by working their magic on the appearance of dark spots caused by sun damage.

An Antimicrobial Skin Healer

Of course, even the most youthful skin isn’t exempt from the occasional cuts, scrapes, and blemishes. Sometimes, even the most immaculate complexions get acne, too! A sneaky little secret to heal these quickly? That’s right — helichrysum EO.

I love the healing effect on it in acne treatments,scars and marks, pretty amazing!

A primary reason why it works is that this plant’s extract has a substance called curcumene, known for its wound-healing action. Helichrysum’s curcumene is anti-inflammatory and antiseptic, which leaves no chance for bacteria and fungi to linger on the wound. Combine this with the oil’s collagen-promoting italidiones, and you’ve got skin that’s swiftly resilient against damage. Say bye-bye to small cuts and pesky pimples in a jiffy!
