The power of plants
According to Greek legend, the nymph Chloris who was charmed by the bucolic poetry of the young Cyanos, changed him into the cornflower to keep the memory of this nature lover alive for all eternity. In traditional medicine, a calming water obtained from the flowers helps to soothe fragile or irritated eyes.
Skincare Benefits Organic cornflower extract
Organic cornflower extract has a soothing effect and promotes optimal organization of the microcirculatory network, allowing it to better transport water and nutrients. This helps to reduce the visible signs of fatigue around the eye contour.
Responsible sourcing
Protecting soil and biodiversity is a long-standing commitment at Clarins. Our extract is obtained from cornflower flowers grown in Albania and France in accordance with organic farming principles, meaning without chemical inputs or pesticide.
