Helichrysum essential oil rejuvenates skin, reducing the appearance of uneven skin texture and tone when applied topically, and is a favorite among athletes after intense workouts or playing on the field.*
Get to Know
PRODUCT BACKGROUND
Helichrysum, from the Greek
helios
for sun and
chrysos
for gold, is one of the world’s most sought-after essential oils. Native to coastal locales in places such as France, Italy, and Croatia, the delicate flowers bloom in rocky soils before a painstakingly careful harvest. Global exploitation of the botanical led Young Living to import rocks to our Dalmatia Aromatic Farm in Split, Croatia, to replicate its preferred environment, where we now cultivate the previously wild-crafted blossoms. We steam distill the helichrysum blossoms and provide our members access to what is sometimes known as the “Everlasting Flower.”
