Description: Traditional Elder flower extract 1:1 in ethanol and purified water. 

1. Supporting Healthy Sinuses

Elderflower can help you if you catch the ills and chills as well as in the allergy season. In the spring the elder supplies us with its flowers. The elderflowers are high in flavonoids (especially rutin and isoquercitrin) which are used for their anti-inflammatory and anti-allergy effects, specifically on the upper respiratory tract and sinuses.  Elderflower soothes inflamed tissues in the sinuses and dries up secretions and excess mucus. It also helps to reduce that blocked up and ‘deafness’ you can get from too much mucus in your sinuses.  This makes elderflower a great remedy for sinusitis, colds, and allergies.  

2. Improving Skin and Hair Health

Infused with innate anti-aging and free radical fighting properties, elderflower can keep your skin radiant for longer periods. Besides, they also act as a natural detoxifying agent which helps prevent distressing skin conditions like breakouts, boils, and scars.

3. Managing Fever

Elderflower is often found in tea blends that contain peppermint and thyme to support a healthy immune system. They are often found in tea blends that support a healthy immune system alongside peppermint and thyme. The active properties within the flower induce sweating by working on sweat gland activity, which can help with bringing down a fever. The amazing thing about elderflowers is that when they are heated, they can help with fever and sweating, and in a cold infusion they can cool you down. It’s amazing that this plant adapts to your needs!

Elderflowers act not only as a relaxant but also as a diaphoretic which is important with fevers. The relaxing part of the herb will help the tissues relax and allow blood flow to increase to the peripheral areas of the body (the skin and limbs). This causes the skin’s pores to open up and let the body sweat. This sweating helps to not only release the built-up tension within the body but to cool it down as well.

4. Anti-Inflammatory 

Both the leaves and the flowers help to impart anti-inflammatory properties. This can be helpful when you are feeling under the weather, suffering from seasonal allergies, or looking to reduce inflammation within your lifestyle (e.g. from processed foods or too much alcohol). The anti-inflammatory properties can be traced back to the presence of ursolic acid within the plant. Elder is also high in antioxidants and has nutritional health benefits also.

For families with children, it’s a smart idea to make an anti-inflammatory oil with elderflower in advance to use on any and everything that looks swollen and inflamed, such as diaper rash, bug bites, rashes, sprained ankles, etc. It’s quite easy to make elderflower oil on your own. You just need a glass jar, fill it 1/2 full of dried elderflower or full if you’re using fresh flowers, and pour your oil over it.

5. Help with Eye Irritation

Elderflowers are high in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, and also helpful in supporting healthy skin healing and reducing skin irritations. For those months with extra pollen and dust flying around, you could use a cooled elderflower infusion on the skin (or even add it to a bath). You can also soak some cotton pads in an elderflower infusion and place them on your eyes to help calm them down or reduce irritation. For better results, you can even put the soaked cotton pads in the fridge before use to really cool and calm your eyes down! Elderflower infusions are a great natural solution for tired, itchy and irritated eyes. Another idea could be to put the soaked cotton pads in the fridge before use to really cool and calm your eyes down!
