CAS: 8023-95-8
Helichrysum Oil Pure, also known as Immortelle or Everlasting essential oil (CAS: 8023-95-8), is a volatile aromatic liquid extracted from the flowers of the Helichrysum italicum plant, primarily through steam distillation. It is highly valued for its complex chemical profile, which typically includes neryl acetate, alpha-pinene, gamma-curcumene, and limonene. The oil possesses a distinctive warm, sweet, honey-like, and herbaceous aroma, often with slightly curry-like undertones. It is widely recognized for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and regenerative properties.
Helichrysum oil is primarily used in aromatherapy and topical applications. In aromatherapy, it is diffused to create a calming and grounding atmosphere, promoting emotional well-being. Topically, it is commonly diluted with a carrier oil and applied to the skin, often targeting specific concerns related to skin health, muscle comfort, and minor irritations.
This essential oil finds extensive applications in the cosmetic, perfumery, and wellness industries. It is a prized ingredient in high-end skincare products for its purported anti-aging benefits, ability to soothe irritated skin, reduce redness, and promote skin regeneration, particularly for scars, stretch marks, and blemishes. It is also incorporated into massage blends for muscle aches, joint discomfort, and bruising. In natural perfumery, its unique aroma makes it a valuable middle to base note. Historically and in traditional medicine, it has been applied for various inflammatory conditions and to support the healing process.
Helichrysum oil is generally considered safe for topical and aromatic use when properly diluted. Potential side effects include skin sensitivity or allergic reactions in individuals with sensitive skin; a patch test is recommended prior to widespread use. It should be kept out of reach of children and avoided during pregnancy or while nursing without consulting a healthcare professional. Direct contact with eyes and mucous membranes should be avoided. Due to its potential anti-coagulant properties (though generally mild for essential oils), individuals on blood-thinning medication should exercise caution and consult a doctor before use. It is not recommended for internal consumption unless under the direct supervision of a qualified expert.
