L'Officine Universelle Buly, a traditional French perfumery inaugurated in 1803 that is a paradise on Earth for the most purist beauty victims, hides in a street in Paris, a few meters from the Seine. If visiting the City of Light is not in your plans, get the book that its current owners have published, An Atlas of Natural Beauty, an encyclopedia to discover and become an expert in the most widely used botanical ingredients in beauty throughout of history around the world. We review some of the ones that cannot be missing in your masks and homemade potions.

CALENDULA

The macerate of this plant that comes from the Mediterranean basin can become the best ally of those who have the most sensitive skin, since it is known for its softening, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. Ideal for calming rashes or on irritated skin.

OLIVE OIL

In addition to being rich in antioxidants and hydrating fatty acids, this is one of the most accessible ingredients. Soak a lettuce leaf in olive oil and let it rest on your skin for 10 minutes. Then remove the excess oil with a cotton ball dipped in rose water that will leave your skin soft and fresh, literally like a lettuce.

ROSEMARY

This Yes that is a natural multipurpose. Rosemary essential oil and water are recommended both for oily skin and with a tendency to pimples, as well as for mature and stressed faces. Did you know that it is also a good deodorant and helps balance the scalp with dandruff?

LAVENDER

The painkiller par excellence. Put a few drops of lavender essential oil on your pillow or on your temples with a gentle massage before bed to have guaranteed sweet dreams. If you have a burn, apply a few taps of lavender water to the area to relieve itching.
