Use in Skin Care and Remedies

The marsh mallow has learnt to cope with the drying areas of salt-containing soils. This can be seen in its ability to keep its roots fleshy and full of water and to form many mucilage cells in it. This ability to maintain a balanced moisture content against extreme external conditions is passed on to the skin.

Dr.Hauschka skincare products use both the leaves and the roots because of their moisturising properties.

An essence of the leaves is found in Dr.Hauschka Quince Day Cream, Daily Revitalizing Eye Cream, Regenerating Neck and Décolleté Cream, Almond Body Moisturizer, Rhythmic Night Conditioner, Intensive Treatment 03 and 04, Jojoba and Marshmallow Conditioner, Translucent Make-up and in Dr.Hauschka Med Sage Mouthwash. An extract of the root drug is used in Hand Cream, Rose Day Cream, Rose Day Cream light, Regenerating Day Cream, Regenerating Body Moisturizer and Firming Mask.
