Another of my desert island oils – the ones I would have to have if somehow stranded – has to be Helichrysum. Known as the “everlasting flower” or the “immortal flower,” this show-stopping plant has been sought after for centuries for its ability to rejuvenate your skin and vitality. Almost like a floral fountain of youth, Helichrysum can do wonders for your skin and metabolism while simultaneously improving your mood. Cultivated in Corsica, France, and the dry, rocky regions of the Mediterranean, the golden-yellow flowers are carefully steam distilled to produce this distinctly herbaceous-honey-scented essential oil.
