Roses are red and violets are blue, but did you know that these flowers haven healing properties too? Yes, you heard that right. The benefits of a blooming garden are beyond just a sensory experience. According to the president of Eminence Organic Skin Care, Boldijarre Koronczay, “nature is the best chemist in the world”. “Due to their healing powers and potent activities, flowers can benefit just about every skin issue, from acne to aging.”

If you’re a cult member of the organic skincare club then this is something you might already have come across. But if you are absolutely new to the green scene and wondering why your moisturizer is looking more and more like a garden then it might be because of the Flower Power.

Flowers and their extracts have been a vital part of our culture, dating back to 1500 BC where ancient Egyptians created ointments combined with essential oils, aromatic waters and floral extracts used for beautification and other preservation processes.

Flowers contain vitamins and antioxidants that help to keep the skin cleansed, moisturised and smoothe. In addition to feeling good, floral extracts have abundant anti-ageing properties and fight free radical damage. The easiest way to enjoy the skin benefits of flowers is by reaching for products that are specially formulated with floral extracts.
