Saffron for Skin and Hair

Saffron in beauty

For centuries Persian women have used saffron for clear skin and strong hair, and modern science supports these benefits.

For the skin

• Natural brightener: a saffron and milk mask helps brighten the skin.
• Anti-acne: saffron's antibacterial properties help reduce acne.
• Anti-ageing: saffron's antioxidants fight wrinkles.

A simple saffron mask

Soak a few threads in a spoonful of milk. After 15 minutes mix with a spoonful of honey, apply to the skin and rinse after 20 minutes.

For the hair

Massaging saffron oil into the scalp helps strengthen the roots and reduce hair loss.
