HIBISUS FOR SKIN AND HAIR CARE

hibiscus
Hibiscus is often referred to as a miracle flower. The vitamin C and E extracts in the flower lighten your skin tone and hydrate it to get glowing skin. Hibiscus is excellent for skin tightening because the anthocyanins stimulate elastin production, helping the natural process of keeping your skin tight and youthful looking. 

One of the primary benefits of hibiscus for skin is that it is rich in Vitamin A. Vitamin A is anti-inflammatory when applied to the skin and can help reduce any redness or soreness. At the same time, hibiscus acids promote production of a protein that boosts cell regeneration, speeding healing along. 

Hibiscus contains phenolic compounds that, by scavenging free radicals, protect the skin from environmental damage. Furthermore, alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) in hibiscus exfoliate the skin, making it an excellent choice for a face packIn addition, it improves skin texture and reduces blackheads and hyperpigmentation. You can use hibiscus as tea, lip balm, mask, toner, body scrubs, or moisturizers.
