INGREDIENTS GLOSSARY

Geranium


Geranium is useful for its astringent and antiseptic properties and for its action in balancing the skin’s production of sebum. This makes it useful for skins that are excessively dry or oily, or for dry skins with oily patches. It also has a stimulating effect on the lymphatic system and is therefore often used in the treatment of cellulite and water retention. Geranium also acts as an antidepressant and often described as having a sedative effect on the mind and body.
