The wonderful root of Iris

Iris

LATIN NAME: Iris florentina
ACTION: protective, moisturising

The origins of the Iris go back to the dawn of time: the Egyptians, as early as the 15th century BC, could admire its beauty and use its rhizome in medicine, in perfumery and in the magical arts. It can reach up to two metres in height, has long leaves with an original sword shape and a wonderfully fragrant flower with shades that vary from violet-blue to white, becoming yellow and red. From the Italian variety Iris florentina (Orris) our Laboratories have extracted two wonderful functional substances - the Iris fluid extract and Iris distilled water - which perform a balanced protective, moisturising and softening action on the skin.
