ESSENTIAL OIL
Helichrysum
Travel through golden fields, dotted by flowers that smell of warm honey with profound healing benefits from trauma relief to skin regeneration.
It is no wonder that Helichrysum has been coined through the ages with the names Everlasting and Immortelle, as a tribute to the aroma that remains in the buds for years and years, long after the flowers have been harvested from the ground. Such names also speak to the character of this botanical. It is among the most important essential oils we have discovered as humans. Countless testimonials from people around the world speak to the profound regenerative properties of this precious oil. From skin care benefits to scar diminishment to relief from various kinds of trauma, Helichrysum seems to be illuminated with everlasting life force. Liquid gold is another name to describe this gift from the earth.
We are so very honored to offer Helichrysum italicum directly from the source in the Herzegovina Croatia Region. We have a special relationship with the grower and distiller, who speaks of Helichrysum as the smell of their childhood. The heart and soul of the people who live so close to the earth is ever-present in this oil and is as palpable in the aroma as in the regenerative properties. Experience Helichrysum that has been nurtured from seed to oil with this luminous batch of everlasting liquid gold.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
- For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children.
- If essential oils come into unwanted contact with skin or mucous membranes, a traditional method for mitigating this is to douse the area in a fatty/carrier oil. Common kitchen oils like olive oil are effective. Essential oils are lipophilic, meaning they love oils and fats. This is why they are drawn to the fatty/carrier oil. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they hate water. For this reason, putting water on the skin will push the essential oil further into the skin.
- The FDA has not evaluated information on our website. The information is based on traditional uses and does not come with any claims on diagnosing, treating, healing, curing, or preventing any diseases or conditions.
- Extra precautions or avoidance of essential oils are recommended for people who are: children, elderly, pregnant or nursing, or have medical conditions.
Customer Reviews
I am in my seventies and the skin on my arms is thin and fragile. Even a small poke can lead to bleeding under the skin and a red spot that sticks around for a week or more. A drop of Helichrysum rubbed on 2x a day helps these spots clear up much more effectively than anything else I have tried. It scent is a little strange but is not strong doesn't last long enough to bother me.
