Achillea millefolium
Achillea millefolium - one of natures wonders?
Achillea millefolium (Yarrow) has been used for centuries in Iceland and around the world to heal wounds and improve skin conditions. Yarrow is considered to have anti-inflammatory, healing, antibacterial and astringent properties to name a few and is a very interesting herb to use in cosmetics. It is therefore no wonder that Yarrow is found in many of Purity Herbs products.Studies on the effects of Achillea millefolium extract on skin has shown that it has rejuvenating effect on the skin surface. These rejuvenating effects are e.g. increasing epidermal thickness and to significantly improve wrinkle, pore appearance and skin softness. These studies support us in Purity Herbs in the belief that Yarrow is pure wonder for our skin.
