MHRB - Mimosa Hostilis / Tepezcohuite (Skin Care/Clothing dye)

powdered Bark used for clothe dying (purple/red) & skin care.

“The crushed Tepezcohuite bark was used by Mayan healers for its magic effect to relieve and treat skin lesions and burns and heal wounds without leaving marks. In addition, thanks to its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, as well as its ability to regenerate the epidermis, it has earned the nickname "miracle plant", and it has thus been classified as part of the national heritage of Mexico. .

The bark powder of Tepezcohuite Mimosa tenuiflora is particularly rich in tannins, antibacterial and antifungal compounds, also known to restore impermeability to the skin and make it firmer. The active ingredients with which the plant abounds do not stop there. Another effect of tightening pores is astringency, which helps fight excessive sweating as well as treating oily skin. Finally, you should know that tannins are part of this large family of antioxidants. They therefore make it possible to combat certain external elements (free radicals, UV, stress, etc.) recognized to accelerate the phenomenon of cellular aging. The bark of Tepezcohuite is therefore very effective as an anti-aging active.” (https://millevertus.ca/boutique/en/tepezcohuite-powder-mimosa-tenuiflora-p1525/)
