We love Helichrysum<\/a>; it\u2019s in some of our favourite blends such as Deep Relief<\/a>, but it\u2019s also fabulous on its own. A little bit earthy, a little bit herby, its invigorating aroma can chase away the sluggish energy in a room. And that\u2019s just the start of the dozens of ways this essential oil is a multitasking all-star.<\/p>\n

It may be a must-have, but this rare plant is also a little mysterious, so we\u2019re giving you eight fun facts and tips about this favourite essential oil for your inner botanist! Go ahead and use them to flex your Eessential Oils knowledge<\/a> at your next party\u2014you\u2019re sure to establish yourself among your friends as the essential oil guru.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Helichrysum flowers are sometimes called Immortelle, or the Everlasting Flower, possibly because of the way its essential oil can smooth the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin tone. Home spa night, anyone?<\/li>\n
  2. Helichrysum is a self-seeding plant in the sunflower family. It grows native in rocky and sandy terrains throughout the Mediterranean. If you love Helichrysum oil, you should probably book a trip to Croatia to see it for yourself ASAP. Just saying.<\/li>\n
  3. The word \u201chelichrysum\u201d comes from Latin and Greek roots, meaning \u201cgold spiral.\u201d Its beautiful, tiny golden blossoms definitely deserve the name.<\/li>\n
  4. Hit a slump? Throw some Helichrysum and Eucalyptus Radiata<\/a> into your diffuser. The fresh, earthy, invigorating scent will perk your space right up and help you refocus on that mile-long to-do list. It probably wouldn\u2019t hurt during homework time either.<\/li>\n
  5. Tiny flowers mean tiny yields of essential oil. We steam distill the delicate blossoms of this plant, and while we don\u2019t get much oil from each distillation, that oil has a rich and complex profile of the naturally occurring constituents neryl acetate, gamma-curcumene and alpha-pinene.<\/li>\n
  6. Hitting the gym? One of our top Helichrysum oil uses is sports massage. Add a few drops of Helichrysum and Peppermint<\/a> to Young Living V-6<\/a> and knead into muscles wherever you need it. Believe us\u2014that treadmill won\u2019t look so daunting tomorrow.<\/li>\n
  7. Helichrysum is typically harvested wild from the rocky shores of Croatia\u2019s Dalmatia region, but Young Living\u2019s helichrysum is cultivated at our farm in Split, Croatia.<\/a> By cultivating this rare plant, Young Living is helping to protect it from exploitation and overharvesting. In using our Helichrysum essential oil, you\u2019re helping support sustainable agriculture. Doesn\u2019t that feel good?<\/li>\n
  8. Skin dull and dry from time out in the sun? Help revive it with a soothing, aromatic combination of Helichrysum, Lavender and coconut oil. Gently massage the mixture onto your skin, then kick back with a honey-lavender lemonade for a total inside-out reprieve from the heat.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
