Tales from Nature
The Linden tree is a majestic, long-lived tree belonging to the genus Tilia, native to the northern hemisphere. The Latin name "pliton" means wing, from the characteristic winged leaves that carry the plant's fruits gathered in small clusters.
Benefits Hair
Lime Tree Extract, which is obtained from the flowers and helps counteract damage on brittle and damaged hair by creating a coating around the cuticles, softening them and preserving their elasticity, limiting water loss. It is indicated in the formulation of shampoos, bubble baths and intimate hygiene cleansers.
Skin Benefits
Lime in cosmetics is used in the preparation of emulsions, after-sun products and treatments for delicate, sensitive, dry, arid skin prone to redness or irritated by sun, wind and saltiness.
It performs an immediate soothing and cooling action. Rich in mucilage, it creates a natural protective film that rehydrates sun-dried skin, "dulling" redness and giving a feeling of deep well-being and softness.
