Helichrysum gymnocephalum Essential Oil

Support your respiratory system and calm anxious nerves with Helichrysum gymnocephalum Essential Oil. Also known as Everlasting Flower, Helichrysum gymnocephalum is steam distilled from the leaves and flowers of its namesake plant, which is native to Madagascar and presents a medium-strength floral aroma that’s sweet, earthy, and slightly menthol-like.

Helichrysum gymnocephalum benefits include pain relief and respiratory support. It’s high in plant compounds called terpenes and flavonoids, which promote natural healing and reduce inflammation in the body. The menthol-like quality of this essential oil also gives it expectorant properties to loosen mucus and phlegm, which helps treat sinus and lung congestion.

To use this pure essential oil, dilute with a carrier oil like FCO or Almond Oil, then massage into the skin to ease pain from headaches, sore muscles, and stiff joints. To reduce acne, tone the skin, and exfoliate, apply it to the face with clean fingertips or a cotton pad, or add 1-3 drops to your daily moisturizer or cleanser.

You can also diffuse this essential oil to reduce stress, balance the central nervous system, and purify the air in your home, office, or car. Thanks to its antimicrobial properties, this essential oil neutralizes odor-causing bacteria and germs to help protect you against colds, flus, and other infections.
