The cornflower used in cosmetology is Centaurea Cyanus or cornflower.
This hardy plant is easy to grow and loves the sun.
The floral stems carry a solitary flower of a pretty blue tending to gray.
The plant blooms from May to July.
The cornflower also called barb is a plant traditionally messicole (which lives in the harvests); this traditional existence of the plant becomes rarer because of the current modes of culture.
The decoction of cornflower is traditionally used for its soothing properties for the skin and eyes.
