Helichrysum Italicum Essential Oil Roll on for Skin Care, Wrinkles, Scars, Bruises - USDA Certified Immortelle Oil 10ml Aromatherapy Roller - Always Pure, Always Organic

Absolutely helps to heal and make purple marks! Well worth the price.

Love this essential oil. Works great on skin without irritation. Has a nice not over powerful smell.

After a bad exposure to mold caused me severe asthma I was on steroids for 3 years. Although I’ve been off them for 2 years it destroyed my skin. Between that and turning 71 I bruise horribly. On average it would take my bruises 3-4 weeks to fully disappear. This was a problem for me because I live in a hot humid climate and pretty much go sleeveless all the time. I’ve tried various concealers but they just run off in the heat. I was skeptical about this oil but I was desperate. I felt like it was working but then came a real test. I was having a minor surgical procedure and they were having trouble finding a vein for the IV, which they wanted in the forearm. They had to stick me so many times - it was awful and my arm just had the hugest bruise I’ve ever had. Normally a bruise like this would take a month to be fully gone. I rubbed the oil into it 2-3 times daily and here it is after 10 days. So I’m sold. In fact I just subscribed so I’d always have it around. I find the smell pleasant and not too strong which is good because many scents trigger my asthma. The main con for me is that no matter how hard you rub it in it is still oil and it takes a while for it to fully absorb. So in the beginning I had some staining on clothes and sheets. It did come out with some OxyClean but it was a pain. Now I apply it when I’m laying in bed reading or watching tv. I have an old thin microfiber beach towel with a dark pattern that I spread out on the bed and I just lay on it and relax until the oil has absorbed. And yes I do believe it’s expensive and there are cheaper options but this is a heavier concentration than some of the cheaper options and it works for me.

My husband’s skin easily develops dark purple marks or bruises. This oil is very effective at helping the marks fade

Didn't like

Great product. I used it on my arms that bruise easily because of being on blood thinners. Reduced the inflammation and bruising and seems to strengthen the skin tone.

This is not 100% Helichrysum oil. The photos and decription only mention Helichrysum when in fact the label shows Helichrysum as the LAST of 2 oils in this blend making it the oil there is the least of in the bottle. It doesn't smell or feel like Helichrysum at all. They conveniently left out a photo of the ingredients too. The 1st is Jojoba oil.

I’ve tried so many products to treat the dark spots on my hands and arms, I didn’t have a lot of confidence this would work. Happy to say I was WRONG- the heliacrysum (sp) essential oil worked within days to lighten the spots. After a week of using it twice a day, the spots are barely visible!
