Parsley

Parsley is particularly rich in potassium and manganese. Among the other substances it contains, we find α-terpinene, α-pinene, apiol, myristin, glycoside apiin, palmitic acid, oleoresin and tetramethoxyallylbenzene, some flavonoids such as apigenin, apiline luteolin and chrysoeriol and vitamins K, C and A.

The oil is obtained from parsley seeds, which have a characteristic spicy smell of parsley. It exhibits antimicrobial, antiseptic and detoxifying properties. Parsley oil helps soothe scars and scabs, smoothes the skin and whitens pigment spots. It is suitable for dry, sensitive and problematic skin and is suitable for rashes. It refreshes and prevents swelling after a stressful night and also helps in removing blackheads.
