Stories from Nature
A symbol of longevity and strength, the cypress is an evergreen tree of the Cupressaceae family, native to the eastern Mediterranean and characterized by an elegant, slender shape. It can grow over 30 meters tall and has a dense crown composed of small branches covered with dark green, scale-like leaves. It also produces distinctive rounded, woody cones that contain its seeds.
The cypress is one of the longest-lived plants in the Mediterranean landscape: some specimens can live for several centuries and, under favorable conditions, exceed 1,000 years.
Hair Benefits
Thanks to its purifying, astringent, and balancing properties, Cypress Essential Oil helps keep the scalp clean and balanced, especially in cases of excess sebum and flaking. Its toning action, combined with massage, helps stimulate superficial skin microcirculation—especially in ampoule treatments—promoting conditions that support the health of hair follicles and hair vitality. It completes the treatment by imparting a pleasant sensation of freshness and lightness.
Skin Benefits
Valued for its toning and refreshing properties, Cypress Essential Oil is used in body treatments to help improve the skin’s appearance and firmness. In after-sun formulations, working in synergy with other soothing ingredients, it complements the treatment’s cosmetic action, promoting a pleasant sensation of freshness and comfort after sun exposure.
