Common questions
What are the virtues of St. John's Wort?
The numerous properties of St. John’s Wort make it an essential part of the natural first aid kit. It is particularly recognized for its soothing, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative virtues for both the skin and the nervous system.

It is also known for its soothing and regenerative virtues for the skin, especially for relieving sunburns or burns. The use of St. John’s Wort is also suitable for relieving muscle contractions and tendonitis.
What are the benefits of hydrosol?
A hydrosol is the product of steam distillation of a plant or flower. When the plant is distilled to extract the essential oil, the hydrosol is the aqueous product remaining after the separation of the oil. It contains the water-soluble compounds of the plant as well as a tiny portion of the essential oil. The use of a hydrosol can therefore be a gentler solution than resorting to essential oils, particularly for the face.
The hydrosol can be applied in several ways:
1. On a soaked cotton pad or on a compress: to gently clean and hydrate the skin;
2. In a spray: the hydrosol is used to rebalance the skin’s pH, tighten pores and prepare the skin to receive other treatments.
3. In cosmetic preparations: the hydrosol can replace water in cosmetic preparations, especially for clay-based preparations or in lotions.
4. Diluted in a drink.
The Plant St. John's Wort
Plant part: Flowering Summit
Origin: France
St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) is a perennial herbaceous plant from the Clusiaceae or Hypericaceae family, depending on the classification. The transparent secretory pouches present on the blade of the elongated leaves give the impression of a multitude of perforations. This characteristic is the origin of the name St. John’s Wort, which means a thousand holes.
Among all the species of St. John’s Wort forming the Hypericum genus, the name without epithet of St. John’s Wort generally refers to the perforated St. John’s Wort. Used in medicine and widely popularized for its antidepressant effects, the plant has many nicknames, the most famous of which is St. John’s Herb.
While St. John’s Wort is known for its beneficial effects in soothing the symptoms of mild depression, it is also very effective in soothing skin conditions such as burns and muscle pain.
