Helichrysum

Description

The Helichrysum (Helycrisum Italicum) cultivated and distilled at Podere Santa Bianca is an oil as precious as it is difficult to distil (in a current of steam, the entire flowering plant).
A solar symbol of immortality, its flowers were woven into garlands to adorn the statues of the gods. It radiates warmth, encourages decision-making, strengthens the spirit and creative capacity, and stimulates attention and intuition.

Suggested uses:

•  Room diffuser: between 3 and 6 drops in 100 ml of water.
• Bath: 8 to 10 drops of essential oil emulsified in coarse salt, milk, cream, or honey in hot water (this prevents the oil from evaporating due to the heat).
• Massage: we recommend diluting a few drops of essential oil in a tablespoon of carrier oil.
  We also offer Jojoba oil with 1% Helichrysum essential oil already in it.
• Food use: we recommend 1/2 drops per 100 g of food to be flavoured and added at the end of cooking (we suggest you always start with the lowest recommended dose and increase the drops in the future). This essential oil also goes very well in certain cocktails.

Warnings: Do not use in case of chronic diseases, during pregnancy and lactation. If in doubt, consult a doctor/pharmacist.
