A healing tree

A tree with powerful regenerating benefits, harungana encourages reforestation by colonising barren soils in Madagascar and Africa. Since time immemorial, it has been used by local communities for its many therapeutic benefits. Its leaves improve liver function and also have antiseptic and healing benefits, while the orangey-red sap of the plant is used to soothe skin conditions.

COSMETIC EFFECTIVENESS

In cosmetics, harungana extract helps promote collagen synthesis for firmer skin. The extract used by Clarins Laboratories is obtained through organic farming.
