Helichrysum: The Golden Healer of Skincare

Some ingredients just feel magical—and helichrysum is one of them. Known as the “everlasting flower,” this golden bloom brings powerful healing energy to every product it touches, which is exactly why I love using it here at Camelia Colette Soapery.

What Is Helichrysum?

Helichrysum (pronounced HEL-ee-kri-sum) is a flowering plant known for its bright yellow blossoms and its incredible regenerative properties. Used for centuries in traditional healing, it’s now a favorite in natural skincare for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and skin-repairing benefits.

Why I Use Helichrysum in My Skincare

Helichrysum is one of those gentle powerhouses. It’s soothing enough for sensitive or irritated skin but effective enough to:

• Calm redness and inflammation

• Reduces the appearance of scars

• Support skin renewal and elasticity

• Help with breakouts and blemish healing

I like to think of it as nature’s way of hitting “reset” on your skin—calming, restoring, and revitalizing all at once.

Who It’s Great For

If you have:

• Sensitive skin

• Redness or irritation

• Blemish-prone skin

• Mature or tired skin
  …you’ll love what helichrysum can do.

It works beautifully in facial products and blends especially well with ingredients like tamanu oil, jojoba, and calendula—other healing favorites in my collection.

How to Enjoy the Benefits

You’ll find helichrysum in some of our skincare treatments and creams (Balance Cream Lotion, Eterna Luxe Body Souffle), where it gently supports your skin’s natural healing process without clogging pores or causing irritation.

It’s a key ingredient in the formulas I create for skin that needs a little extra love—and if you haven’t experienced it yet, you’re in for a glow-up.

Let’s hear it for the skin-soothing power of flowers!
