Helichrysum

Helichrysum has strongly aromatic daisy-like flowers that become dry as the plant matures but retain their colour and perfume. The oil is produced through steam distillation of the plant’s dark-yellow flowers, which must be quickly harvested and processed immediately. Helichrysum promotes cell growth, making it valuable in skincare preparation. It is known for its antidepressant properties, brings a ray of hope for people who experiences shock, phobias, lethargy and stress. Commonly called “Everlasting” as it lives up to its name by retaining its fragrance, colour, and shape almost forever.
