Bay leaves – the elixir of youth for your skin
Bay leaves are a true treasure trove of nutrients that positively affect skin health. They contain vitamins (A, C, B group), minerals (potassium, zinc, copper, selenium), and antioxidants that neutralize free radicals responsible for skin aging. Thanks to these properties, bay leaves:
- reduce wrinkles: They stimulate collagen and elastin production, making the skin firmer and more elastic.
- smooth the complexion: They remove dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth and radiant.
- have anti-inflammatory effects: They soothe irritations and redness, speeding up skin healing.
- possess antibacterial properties: They prevent acne and other imperfections.

Preparing a homemade bay leaf cream is straightforward. Here's what you'll need:
- bay leaves,
- 1 tablespoon of shea butter,
- 6 drops of clove oil,
- carrier oil (e.g., jojoba, almond, or coconut oil).
Preparation:
- Pour hot water over a few bay leaves and steep them for about 15 minutes.
