A vegetal story

The curry plant, a rare flower in Mediterranean sunshine

 

HELICRYSUM ITALICUM, ASTERACEAE

An endemic and hardy schrub from the Mediterranean area that lives on chalky soils. It is known for its strong fragrance similar to curry and used for its healing properties discovered many centuries ago in the South of France, for instance, its essential oil is used for anti-inflammatory effects. It is a quite rare species, although it is now cultivated and grows a lot in some places. Its French name that means «everlasting» comes from the exceptionnal long lasting bunches of the dried flowers, that Roman used in their funeral wreaths in Antiquity.

 

Because skin limits its renewal process when ageing, it is necessary to maintain it in order that it keeps its supporting functions at their original level. To get a skin looking «younger», firmer and soother.

How it works ?

Total Generation Curry plant helps to get back a natural densification thanks to a better cohesion between the two skin layers, dermis and epidermis.

It boosts and changes the initial cell and fiber synthesis, the one of keratinocytes and of collagens – the two elements that allow skin to stay young and thick. Therefore it can help that synthesis to recover its initial function: creating skin supporting fibers. But also in order that the contact zone between the two skin layers keeps its anchorage points. In the same time, it limits the creation of free radicals, the 3rd essential factor of skin ageing.

 

Thanks to those actions, the different layers keep on being linked to each other with cells always operating.
