Wild acanthus or onopordon, also known as "acanthus thistle" or "donkey grass", is a biennial plant that grows in abundance on pathsides and overgrown areas.
Its broad, winged stems are covered in thorns and its large, woolly flower heads open to produce purple flowers in summer. This plant has many traditional uses, both medicinal and food.
The roots, which stimulate the appetite and support digestion, can be used in decoctions, and the juice of the leaves is renowned for its restorative powers for the skin. The flower heads can be eaten a bit like artichokes, and the roots and ribs are also edible.
The plants used for the production of this active extract are grown in Auvergne and are certified organic. Harvesting takes place at the beginning of summer, when the flowers are in bud but not yet in bloom. The extraction process allows the extraction of a wide range of active ingredients from this plant:
Sugars, mainly mono- and diosides (concentration in the active ingredient: 0.7 to 3.5 g/l), with moisturising and softening
flavonoids with antioxidant
sesquiterpene lactones, including costunolide (titrated content in the extract: 50 to 550 mg/l), compounds with numerous biological properties
Storage
Store at room temperature away from moisture, light and sources of heat.
Close the bottle tightly after use.
Precautions
Keep out of reach of children.
Do not swallow. Avoid contact with eyes. Do not apply undiluted to the skin. Follow recommended dosages.
Contains alcohol, highly flammable. Keep away from flames and sources of ignition.

Very well tolerated by the skin
The active ingredient that does the skin good!
This is my first time buying Skin Repair active ingredient, so I can't give an opinion yet.
Great product that I use in my homemade aloe vera preparations for the face. I've been using it for over 3 years and the results are fantastic. My skin is more beautiful and hydrated.
Excellent for preventing and repairing sun damage.
