History
Holy Basil, also known as Tulsi Basil, has been used in India for over 5,000 years. A symbol of strength and protection, it is considered a sacred and honoured plant in Ayurvedic medicine. The essential oil produced by steam distilling its flowers and plant is a powerful antioxidant and an excellent anti-ageing ingredient. Its sebum purifying and regulating properties makes it ideal for skin problems. When diffused, it delicately perfumes and revitalizes the air.
