Mallow oil, extracted from the flowers of *Malva sylvestris*, is an exceptional ingredient in natural and organic cosmetics. This oil is known for its emollient, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties, thanks to its mucilage, tannin, and flavonoid content, making it a perfect ally for skincare. Mallow oil is obtained by macerating the plant's flowers in a base vegetable oil, where the flowers are kept for 40 days, and then filtered. The quality of the base oil is fundamental for the mallow oil to be truly effective; in our case, the mallow flowers are macerated in cold-pressed, first-extraction sunflower seed oil of organic production.
