St. John's Wort oil

Known for many health benefits, including the ability to help ward off depression, St. John’s wort is also beneficial for the skin. Full of powerful flavonoids, it helps protect, soothe, and heal skin, while providing anti-acne and anti-inflammatory benefits.

Whether you have oily or dry skin, this herb helps to kill bacteria and calm irritation so your skin looks smoother and healthier. Plus, it helps plump and hydrate skin while restoring elasticity, reducing the look of fine lines and wrinkles.

The herb has also been long used to treat skin conditions, including wounds, eczema, minor burns, and hemorrhoids. It was a folk remedy for nerve pain, as well, has a natural antibacterial property, and also helps fight inflammation.

Benefits to the Skin

Like so many natural plant ingredients, St. John’s wort has a number of benefits when applied topically to the skin. These include:Support elasticity: Elastin in your skin gives it “snap,” helping it to retain its original shape even after you make an expression. Over time, the skin produces less elastin, and what we have can become aged and damaged. St. John’s wort helps support healthy elastin production, reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Hydrating: It has natural essential oils in it that hydrate and plump up the skin, making it appear more fresh and dewy.

Soothing: If you have skin redness or irritation, this is your herb. It helps tame inflammation and soothe itching and burning, making skin more comfortable. It also contains tannins—similar compounds to those found in tea—that help relieve skin irritations, like those resulting from eczema or minor cuts.

Anti-acne: The natural antibacterial action in the herb kills off the bugs that like to cause acne. Combined with the anti-inflammatory action, the herb provides a two-step punch against pimples. This antibacterial action also helps keep skin care formulas free of microorganisms without chemical preservatives.

Wound healing: A balm made from St. John’s wort works well on burns, wounds, insect bites and stings, and other skin irritations and problems.
