Helichrysum Italicum Hydrolat

$37.00

When a plant is distilled, two things emerge: the essential oil, and the water that carried it. That water is the hydrolat — delicate, complex, and often overlooked. It holds its own chemistry, its own therapeutic value, and a softness that makes it one of the most accessible ways to bring plant medicine into everyday life.

Standard hydrolat bottles are 120 ml.

Plant family: Asteraceae

Latin name: Helichrysum angust italicum

Plant part (steam distilled): Flower/Heads

Our first helichrysum from France, this exquisite oil has the warmth of the sun-drenched fields of Southern France, a soft, initial floral signature and then deepens into a resonant herbal finish.  The plants have been distilled with the wisdom and care of a fourth generation farmer.  Known as “Immortelle” or “Everlasting”, Helichrysum has been dubbed “the fountain of youth” because of its reputation as a very high-end, powerful ally for the skin.  From a health standpoint, Helichrysum is a potent anti-inflammatory, cleanses and heals wounds, and reduces scarring (both internal and external) and lessens the appearance of old scars.  Applied topically, Helichrysum is a cholesterol balancer and respiratory support, and is known for treating bruises.   On an emotional level, Helichrysum addresses emotional wounds and scarring, and helps to restore inner peace.
