Native to the warm, sunny Mediterranean region, the fragrant evergreen rosemary herb can be grown practically anywhere as long you protect it from cold temperatures. Its needle-like foliage is widely used in culinary and natural medicine.
In skincare rosemary extract is used as a powerful natural antioxidant thanks to its rosmanarinic acid that also has anti-bacterial and skin calming effects. Further, rosemary is known to be a rich source of manganese, a mineral that helps minimize wrinkles and protects the skin from damage.
