INCI Name: Hypericum perforatum Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract and Olea europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil
Also called Perforate St John's-wort, Common Saint John's Wort and St John's Wort, Hypericum perforatum is named as such because it commonly flowers, blossoms and is harvested at the time of the summer solstice in late June, around St John's Feast Day on 24 June. The herb would be hung on house and stall doors on St John's Feast day to ward off evil spirits and to safeguard against harm and sickness to man and live-stock.
St. John's Wort Infused Oil can be used topically to treat anything from mild burns, wounds and inflamed areas to bruises and varicose veins. It is also great for sores, ulcers, and even hemorrhoids. St. John's Wort has also been traditionally used for centuries, not only for its healing properties but also for treating nerve pain, including neuralgia and sciatica. Saint Johns Wort Oil also has excellent skin toning abilities, helping to soften and clarify the complexion. Furthermore, studies have shown that the principal active constituent of St. John's Wort: Hypericin - is a potent anti-viral drug, especially against enveloped viruses.
Emotionally and energetically, Perforate St John's-Wort Oil is well known for its antidepressant and mood-lifting properties. It is believed to have mild euphoriant properties and is useful for helping with asthenia and seasonal affective disorder. St. John's Wort may also help relieve tension and stress and increase mental clarity.
