WHAT VANILLA DOES TO YOU
What vanilla creates is not just a fragrance; it is a sensation. An exotic confluence of scent and taste that is immensely comforting, evoking images of warmth, love and serenity; of sugar cookies and ice cream.
The second most expensive spice in the world after saffron traces its origin to the Ancient Totonac Indians of Mexico who were the first to harvest the vanilla bean. Many invasions and histories later, vanilla continues to be an exotic ingredient in our favourite foods.
POWER OF THE BEAN
So, what does vanilla have to do with the beauty care scene? How does a prominent ingredient of cakes, cookies, milkshakes and ice creams find its way into tubes of creams and oils for the skin and hair? Not to mention the wide range of exotic scents from the world’s major perfume houses.
And there lies the power of the bean. What it could do to the senses is to be known. The little pod carries within it the formula to promote healthy skin and hair, reverse or slow down ageing, and help with healing wounds and scars. Not many know that vanilla is rich in antioxidants that play a huge role in repairing skin damage and help delay ageing signs like wrinkles, spots and lines.
ANTI-BACTERIAL AGENT
Another factor that made vanilla a favourite of the beauty industry is its anti-bacterial quality that cleanses the skin and prevents pimples and acne. A natural remedy to heal wounds and erase scars, vanilla’s reputation as a wonder spice is legendary.
Its surprising benefits extend beyond physical beauty. What vanilla can do for the mind and our emotions is amazing in its range. Aphrodisiac? Yes, it is. Good for the nervous system? Definitely. Does it help reduce anxiety and depression? So say studies and reports. Need any more reasons to make this spice a part of your diet and beauty regime?
