Yarrow Flower and Dandelion Root Infusion

Yarrow is a herb of many names, many of which - herba militaris, bloodwort, staunchweed, and nosebleed, to list a few - hint at the plant’s fabled ability to heal wounds. Beyond the battlefield, yarrow has been used across cultures to help with many issues, including menstrual problems and headaches. This may in part be thanks to the presence of azulenes, anti-inflammatory compounds found in other soothing botanicals such as chamomile. Dandelion roots, meanwhile, contain protective polyphenols that are thought to help ease irritation and promote supple, firm skin.
