Italian flower essential oil is extracted from a plant called Helichrysum italicum, which occurs naturally in the Mediterranean and southern European areas. In the production of the extract, the method of steam distillation of the green parts of the perennial plant is used. The process must be carried out no later than 24 hours after harvesting, as this ensures the highest quality of the oil. The Italian blanket has been used in aromatherapy, natural medicine and traditional therapies.

Helichrysum Italicum Oil - Properties

Helichrysum Italicum has antimicrobial properties - it inhibits the growth and development of viruses, bacteria and fungi, cleans and promotes wound healing. It fights infections, especially severe coughs and runny noses. According to new research, the oil reduces the symptoms of skin allergies. When applied locally, it reduces muscle and joint inflammation and relieves pain.

The oil is suitable for skin with imperfections - it is very helpful in treating acne and acne scars, cleans and tones the skin. It is a great solution for dermatological problems involving larger areas of the body - a few drops of oil and a tub of warm water is not only a way to relax, but also beautiful, healthy skin.

It is often used in perfumery and has a complex, rich aroma - spicy, earthy, herbal, yet fresh with subtly sweet notes. The aroma reduces stress and irritability, improves mood, promotes inner peace, relaxes and facilitates falling asleep.
