Helichrysum Essential Oil Dilution 5ml

Description

Helichrysum oil is extracted from the fresh or dried flowering-head clusters by steam distillation.

High quality oil is achieved if distillation occurs within 24 hours of harvesting; the younger plants yield greater quantities. There are about 500 species of helichrysum, but only a few produce essential oil. Helichrysum petals were used throughout Europe as a strewing herb in Medieval times.

For external use only

The dilution is at 10% in a Jojoba and Vitamin E base which helps to preserve the oil. Being quite strong it can be diluted further if necessary and can be used straight on the skin however a patch test is always recommended to see if your skin is sensitive to the product.
