Rosemary’s Latin name translates to "dew of the sea.” It is touted as a “new generation antioxidant.” Rosemary leaves are antibacterial, antiseptic, astringent, demulcent, rejuvenating, skin conditioning and stimulating. Rosemary is best for blemished, oily and dull skin and is used for the following skin conditions: acne, seborrhea and cellulite. It is widely used as in facial steams, cleansers, masks, toners, lotions, moisturizers and soaps. When used on the skin it helps to strengthen capillaries and improve sluggish and mature skin, poor circulation, arthritis, rheumatism and infection. As a bath herb, rosemary acts as a muscle relaxant and analgesic, yet revitalizes tired limbs and helps the mind to be alert.
