Blue Tansy

Blue Tansy, also known as Blue Chamomile, grows throughout Europe, and particularly in Mediterranean regions. It was revered by the Egyptians and has appeared in botanical pharmacopoeias for centuries, where it is recommended for alleviating allergic reactions. When its leaves are distilled, they yield a blue-colored essential oil that's rich in chamazulene – a compound known for its calming and soothing properties, which immediately relieves reactive skin, or skin damaged by the cold or UV rays.
