Some of the healing benefits are to treat skin inflammation especially for reducing wrinkles, stretchmarks, acne, scars, dark spots, dry skin, and eczema.
Helichrusym Italicum essential oil is used in many anti-aging products because contains di-ketones molecules (referred to as italidones.) These molecules are not found in any other essential oil, nor are they found in other species of helichrysum.
Italidones are recognized for their incredible ability to regenerate skin tissue and promote cell turnover, leading to increased healing. If you are looking to heal and reduce the appearance of stretchmarks, scars, and wounds than this is the oil and it is extremely gently, for sensitive skin types. This helps the overall growth and repair in the body. When including this oil in your skincare routine your skin will have a natural healthy youthful glowing complexion.
Despite its long history of use, the research on essential oils is often limited and helichrysum oil is no exception. However, there’s some early research suggesting that helichrysum essential oil may offer benefits.
