Organic Hibiscus – Exotic Floral Power for Your Beauty

The hibiscus plant belongs to the mallow family (botanical name: Malvaceae) and is native to tropical regions. There are about 150 different hibiscus species worldwide, often seen as ornamental plants. In countries like Egypt, Mexico, Thailand, and China, hibiscus plants are cultivated in larger quantities. 

Due to their high vitamin C content, people have long used the blossoms as a natural remedy for colds, coughs, and bronchitis. The organic plant extract, produced by lavera Natural Beauty itself, is obtained by extraction from hibiscus flowers.

Organic hibiscus extracts contain up to 30% citric, malic, and hibiscus acids, which can have a brightening effect with regular use and can reduce and even out color irregularities, pigmentation disorders, or age spots. In combination with extracts of white mulberry and cucumber, pigmentation spots can be naturally diminished.

Did you know? The plant acids of the hibiscus plant act on your skin as an exfoliator, meaning dead skin cells are gently removed with the help of fruit acids. This increases the cell division rate, and the complexion can appear rosier and more even overall. In addition, the acids have a clarifying effect: they remove sebum, sweat, and makeup residues, have anti-inflammatory properties, and reduce skin irritations and blemishes. A clear complexion is always welcome at any age!

A natural challenge against age-related skin changes: Hibiscus extracts can inhibit the enzymes responsible for breaking down important collagen in your skin. This way, organic hibiscus, combined with other effective natural ingredients, can help slow down collagen breakdown and preserve your skin's elasticity.
