Tales from Nature
To the Lauraceae family belongs Laurus Nobilis, from which Laurel Essential Oil, known for its skin-balancing properties, is extracted. It is an evergreen shrub, typical of Mediterranean areas where it grows wild. For the ancients, it was the tree consecrated to the Sun-Apollo; heroes, geniuses and sages would gird their heads with its leaves. In fact, its leaves were thought to have the power of divination and to ward off bad luck and contagious diseases.
In Greek myth, the nymph Daphne (laurel), was the first love of the god Apollo. The young girl, in order to escape the god's courtship, had her mother Gaea (Earth) turn her into a laurel plant. Apollo then, decided to venerate this plant by making it evergreen and making it sacred to him. It has since become a symbol of glory and triumph in times of war.
Laurel Essential Oil promotes sebaceous balance by harmonizing the reactivity of the skin surface and skin. This essence excels in treatments aimed at supporting the hair during occasional or seasonal episodes of hair loss.
