1. Use as a cosmetic raw material:
According to the EU Commission's CosIng database (Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 on cosmetic products) CAS No.: 84775-74-6 | EC No.: 283-903-4, Artemisia annua is listed as a versatile cosmetic ingredient. It has a skin-conditioning effect, supports a well-groomed complexion, possesses antimicrobial properties, can counteract excessive sebum production, and, thanks to its natural fragrance, also contributes to perfumery.
2. Use as a chemical raw material:
According to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and the C&L Inventory of ECHA (European Chemicals Agency).
3. Use as incense (traditional use):
When burned, the dried herb develops a slightly bitter, sweet and spicy scent that is described as clarifying and grounding.
Directions:
- Use a fireproof bowl or incense burner with sand or clay base.
- Light a charcoal and let it glow completely.
- Add a small amount of the leaf cuttings/leaf powder to the glowing coal.
- The rising smoke unfolds the aromatic properties.
- Ventilate the room well after smoking.
A notice:
Not intended for ingestion. Not a food.
Since Artemisia annua is a purely natural product, there may be slight differences in appearance and fragrance.
Our Artemisia is harvested and bottled exclusively by certified producers and according to the highest quality standards in Germany.
The usual harvest in Europe is usually carried out by tractor, resulting in a lot of empty stems in the finished product. Our leaves are carefully and meticulously stripped by hand by our growers and then processed with care to ensure you receive a product of the highest possible quality and purity .
In contrast to the usual quality, which consists of mechanically chopped plant parts and usually contains 80% empty stems, our product is also much more concentrated .
Our variety of annual mugwort has up to 20 times the active ingredient content , making it particularly popular as a valuable ingredient in high-quality natural cosmetics .
In addition, it does not yet have any flowers at the time of harvest in late autumn, which makes it a very allergy-friendly subspecies .
This " masterpiece of the green treasure chest" is available exclusively from us.
Ensuring Artemisia annua products meet high quality standards requires a great deal of effort.
It is therefore hardly surprising that the price of high-quality products is adjusted accordingly and that comparatively cheap products cannot possibly meet the same quality standards.
For example, a field worker in Germany earns about 100 times as much as a picker in Northeast India. For the price we pay our German farmers for 1 kilo of Tesana production, we would get 150 kilos of (brown) wild-type produce from Asia.
Annual mugwort (Artemisia annua) and common mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) are two remarkable plants from the daisy family.
The leaves of annual mugwort are finely pinnate, giving them a delicate, graceful appearance . Their color is deep green. The leaves of common mugwort are broader and larger.
The most important difference is that, unlike common mugwort, annual mugwort (Artemisia annua) contains a high proportion of secondary plant substances . Neither is considered a food.
The only difference is that Artemisia annua or Moringa leaf cuts are the dried leaves of the plant, while Artemisia or Moringa leaf powder are the same dried leaves that are pulverized using a grinder.
Artemisia leaf powder is ideal as a cosmetic raw material , while Artemisia leaf cuts are preferably used as incense .
There are no differences in the ingredients/components.
