At first glance, white mallow is a rather delicate plant, but gel-like substances in the roots and flowers protect the plant from drying out and the high concentration of mucilaginous substances in the roots make white mallow calming, soothing, emollient, protective and moisturising.
Its botanical name ”Althaea” derives from the Greek and means ”curing” and its gentle, almost white, flowers blushed with pink and its delicate fragrance have a very calming and soothing effect on the senses, completely unlike other blooms with vibrant colours and intense fragrance. For exactly these reasons, the white mallow is ideal for baby care.
As delicate as baby skin
Delicate, sensitive and immature baby skin has to undergo a process of development and learning during the first years of life. It needs a soft protective and warming layer, and no unnecessary fragrances to bring the skin out of balance. The white mallow binds moisture in the delicate skin of babies and stimulates development of the skin”s own protective forces to keep them from harmful environmental influences.
