Why Skincare Brands Should Choose Hibiscus Flower

Touted by Vogue as the ‘natural botox’, if you’re looking to expand or enhance your skincare portfolio and want to leverage the benefits of natural ingredients, hibiscus is certainly one to take note of. In this guide, we’re looking at the skin and hair care benefits of this tropical flower that you can pass onto your customers.

The beautiful thing about hibiscus is that skin benefits can also be gleaned from drinking the tea! It’s known to assist with skin hydration and restoring the skin’s youthful elasticity.
Let’s take a look at the skincare benefits that you could be sharing with your customers. Hibiscus beauty products are not just trending, the ingredient has also taken the shine of dermatologists around the world who have plenty of positive points to note about this flower.

Hibiscus flower benefits for skin

  • Reverse damage caused by pollutants

The skin can be on the receiving end of many pollutants throughout the day. Rich in antioxidants called anthocyanins, hibiscus helps to fight off free-radicals, which in turn helps to prevent skin ageing and reduce inflammation. It also has natural surfactants (called saponins) that cleanse the skin, leaving it clean and healthy.

  • Healthy complexion

Hibiscus is known to smoothen the skin as well as even skin tone.

  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines

Rich in vitamin C, hibiscus can assist with the production of collagen. This helps to restore the skin’s elasticity and plumpness, reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Hibiscus flower benefits for hair

It’s not just the skin that can benefit. Our hair can too. From stimulating hair growth to creating a satisfyingly smooth and silky finish after washing, the natural amino acids contained within hibiscus can work wonders on our hair.

Amino acids – a type of structural protein called keratin – helps to bind the hair and prevent breakages.

Hibiscus also restores moisture.

Packed full of antioxidants and vitamins necessary for the production of melanin (responsible for skin and hair pigmentation), you can keep grey hairs at bay just that little bit longer.
