The Benefits Of Rosemary And Mint

From babassu to buriti, nature gives us ingredients that nurture both our minds and our bodies.

 

Rosemary and mint are two wholesome ingredients that nourish us, support our internal systems, improve our mood, and invigorate our hair and skin. 

 

The Benefits of Rosemary and Mint for Hair


Herbs like rosemary and mint have been used for centuries to scent, heal, and in the preparation of food. They’re richly beneficial, which is why we created the Aveda Rosemary Mint range. The benefits of these two wholesome herbs range from head to toe, including improving mood through aromatherapy, boosting the immune system, improving cognitive function, aiding in pain relief and digestion, and improving overall health and wellness.

 

Is Rosemary Good for Hair and Skin?


Rosemary and mint are hugely beneficial not only for our minds and bodies but also for our hair and skin. Rosemary is rich in antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties, making it an excellent ingredient for haircare. Rosemary oil in particular is known to stimulate hair growth, improve scalp health, reduce irritation and prevent dandruff. Mint is also healthy for our skin, as it creates a cooling and calming effect when applied topically, and can even treat irritated skin.

 

Does Rosemary Help with Hair Growth?


Rosemary promotes the stimulation of hair growth and can help improve scalp health. It contains compounds that can increase blood circulation to the scalp, to ensure hair follicles get the nutrients they need to grow the hair, and prevent them from dying off. Used in conjunction with peppermint oil, which is also known to promote hair growth, rosemary oil strengthens scalp circulation and improves nerve growth, which helps stimulate and achieve hair growth.

 

Does Rosemary Prevent Hair Loss?


Rosemary helps prevent hair loss by strengthening hair follicles and reducing inflammation in the scalp. Rosemary oil is also known to improve scalp health, prevent dandruff and minimise scalp irritation, which can contribute to hair loss.
