Organic Greek Helichrysum Macerated Oil

Organic Greek Helichrysum Macerated Oil in Organic Virgin Olive Oil

Immortelle oil macerate is a skincare product based on the traditional method of extracting lipophilic plants in vegetable oil. In this batch, freshly harvested flowering tops and leaves of Helichrysum italicum were macerated in organic Greek virgin olive oil, creating an oil with nourishing, protective, and regenerating care properties. The product is 100% pure and natural, with a dark yellow to golden color and a fresh, light, characteristic scent.

This is not an essential oil, but a botanical macerate — its value lies in combining the fatty fraction of olive oil with the lipophilic components of immortelle. It is a particularly interesting product for the care of dry, mature, sensitive, tight, and skin in need of comfort and nourishment. It can be used alone, for massage, or as a base for consciously blended skincare formulations.

It is distinguished by its excellent raw material base: Greek origin, organic immortelle, and organic virgin olive oil. Physicochemical parameters: density 0.913, refractive index 1.467, peroxide value 24.60 meq O₂/kg (manufacturer's limit <40 meq O₂/kg).

Oil macerate compliant with ISO 9235:2013, organically certified / Ecocert COSMOS Organic, produced from organic plant material macerated in Greek virgin olive oil.

Therapeutic and Skincare Properties

• Nourishing

• Regenerating and conditioning
• Supports the skin's lipid barrier

• Helpful in local massage

The macerate has a dermocosmetic and phytotherapeutic character. Olive oil acts as an emollient — it lubricates, smooths, and limits water loss from the epidermis. Immortelle contributes a botanical profile traditionally associated with the care of skin requiring renewal, soothing, and support after exposure to external factors.

Scent Profile

Notes: delicate plant-herbaceous, oily, slightly sunny note
Aroma: fresh, light, characteristic of the macerate; more subtle than immortelle essential oil

Application

Care for dry skin in need of comfort

Apply a small amount of macerate directly to slightly damp facial or body skin. The product helps to soften, smooth, and nourish the skin, supporting its natural lipid barrier.

Local massage

Immortelle macerate can be used for gentle massage of areas requiring more attention — e.g., tight, dry, rough, or uncomfortable skin. It works well as a base for facial, neck, décolleté, or body massage.

Regenerating ritual after bathing

Apply a few drops to damp skin after a bath or shower. Virgin olive oil creates a delicate protective layer, and the immortelle macerate gives the care a more botanical, phytotherapeutic character.

Base for skincare blends

The macerate can be used alone or as a base for delicate blends with essential oils — only at correct, low concentrations and with consideration for the safety of the specific oil.

Professional massages

It will work as a specialized oil for professional massage, especially in treatments aimed at caring for skin requiring regeneration, soothing, and improved comfort after mechanical stress. A good choice for facial, neck, décolleté, and body massage, as well as for tense, overloaded, and bruised areas.

Skincare Pairings for Immortelle Macerate

Jojoba – increases the lightness of the formulation and improves comfort of facial application. A good combination for combination, mature, and sensitive skin.

Apricot kernel oil – gives the blend a softer, velvety finish. Works well in the care of dry, delicate, and dehydrated skin.

Rosehip oil – a combination for mature, uneven skin requiring nourishment and regenerative care. Best used in the evening.

Calendula oil – a very good combination for sensitive, dry skin prone to discomfort and seasonal dryness.

Vegetable squalane – improves lightness and elegance of application. Can reduce the heavier feel of olive oil on the skin.

Tamanu oil – only as a spot treatment or in a small amount, for more intensive skincare blends. Has a distinct scent and heavier character.

Virgin Olive Oil vs. Grapeseed Oil vs. Sunflower Oil — Quality Difference

Virgin olive oil is more oxidatively stable, more nourishing, and more "substantive." It contains a lot of oleic acid and natural unsaponifiable components: squalene, phytosterols, tocopherols, and polyphenols. It gives the product greater skincare depth and a Mediterranean character.

Grapeseed oil is lighter, more technically cosmetic, less greasy, and more convenient for massage, but less prestigious as a premium base.

Sunflower oil is neutral, mild, and practical as a macerate base. For immortelle macerate, it will be correct and cosmetically valuable, but less distinctive than organic virgin olive oil.
