Floral infusions aren’t just soothing beverages—they also offer remarkable benefits for skin and cuticles. Rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and anti-inflammatory compounds, these natural extracts can nourish and rejuvenate the skin. This article explores the science-backed advantages of floral infusions for skin health.
1. Hibiscus: A Powerful Antioxidant for Skin
Hibiscus is known for its antioxidant properties, thanks to its high levels of anthocyanins and organic acids. Studies have shown that extracts like rose petals (Rosa gallica) have significant anti-inflammatory effects, helping to soothe the skin and reduce redness.
