St John's Wort Organic
Known since antiquity for its powerful calming properties, the St. John's Wort is a perennial herbaceous plant with bright yellow flowers, common in Europe and particularly fond of dry and sunny areas. Usually harvested during midsummer, it was named after the St John’s Feast Day taking place on June 24. This plant was also considered as magical in the Middle Ages, keeping evil spirits away.
Equally appreciated for its soothing qualities and with sweet herbaceous aromas, the St. John's Wort hydrosol is thus highly regenerating, anti-inflammatory and stimulating. It will also be most helpful to appease sensitive or irritated skins, as well as sunburns.
