A mythical love story

The name "Helianthus" from the Greek "helios" (sun) and "anthos" (flower), is derived from a legend of Greek mythology. In the myth, a young mortal, Clytie, falls in love with the god Helios and dies from love by constantly watching him. Moved by her plight, Helios turns her into a plant whose flower head follows the movement of the sun throughout the day.

We follow it!

In cosmetics, sunflower is used in many ways. Organic sunflower oil, which comes from its seeds, has nourishing properties; sunflower extract has soothing properties; and finally sunflower auxins, the substances present in its stem, have firming and toning effects.
