Tales from Nature
Echinacea is a genus of herbaceous perennials that are ornamentally and herbaceously interesting. Echinaceae are native to North America, and have a very wide range that extends from coastal areas to great plains, affecting many states.
Echinaceae show remarkable adaptability to different environmental conditions; they grow wild in both lowlands and high altitudes, preferring open, sunny areas. They appear from late spring to autumn and flower between June and August. The stem has an erect habit, is more or less hairy, branched and covered with a few or many leaves depending on the species.
Echinacea Extract is widely used in cosmetic formulations for the treatment and prevention of cellulite and stretch marks, as well as in treatments against hair loss.
Benefits
Echinacea Extract can improve the appearance of dry, mature skin by improving its elasticity and surface hydration. The same benefit can be seen on the scalp, which, as it strengthens, creates a more suitable environment for hair growth.
It also enhances the action of the synergy of the Essential Oils in the skin treatments, assisting the hair follicles to make the best use of available nutrients. At the same time, it carries out an intense root stimulating activity.
