The Dried Blue Lotus Flower (Nymphaea caerulea) was for a long time a very important flower in ancient Egypt and the Mayas, so much so that it is found in numerous papyri and in the mural representations of the temples of the Karnak and Luxor valleys. According to several scholars, struck by this parallelism between two cultures so geographically distant, blue lotus flowers were used in both cultures for ritualistic purposes and probably to reach altered states of consciousness during religious ceremonies.
In all likelihood, beyond its symbolic and religious aspect, the Blue Lotus was also used by the ancient Egyptians and Maya as a meditative plant, capable of promoting concentration, relaxation and lucid dreams.
Benefits of the Blue Lotus
The Blue Lotus is rich in vitamin B and L-carotene: in traditional medicine it has been used for thousands of years to stimulate the metabolism, to induce sleep, as a natural aphrodisiac and as a sedative. There are antioxidant components, flavonoids, phenols and two alkaloids to which it is possible to trace its main properties: apomorphine and nuciferin; both have antispasmodic, relaxing, aphrodisiac and antipsychotic properties.
Lotus Flower Benefits for Skin
The active ingredients of lotus flowers provide extensive skincare benefits. Lotus extract can be used in any kind of skin essentials with a particular action on skin rejuvenation.
Flavonoids present in the lotus flower are extensively us
ed in skin care formulations due to their potential antibacterial and antioxidant activities.
1. Cell regeneration activity
This activity possessed by the lotus flower and lotus seed is due to the potent carbohydrate content present in it. The major skin care carbohydrate that plays an important role in this is oligosaccharide. These are known to stimulate the skin cells which aids in regeneration and improves cytokine production. Normalizing cytokine production helps to maintain the normal function of the epidermal barrier and collagen and elastin synthesis.
Consequently, cell regeneration, and hence stimulation of this system, takes place, thus resulting in an anti-aging action. Because of such cell regeneration properties, they are also useful for anti-acne, anti-aging creams and anti-irritant treatments. Thus, sacred flower extract is recommended in regenerating, moisturizing and emollient cosmetic formulations.

2. Antioxidant activity
The flavonoids of lotus flowers by possessing scavenging free radicals action and iron chelating action exhibit potent antioxidant activity. The flavonoids of this flower are known to impede the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These flavonoids are also known to enhance the antioxidant enzyme activity and endogenous antioxidant availability.
The lotus flower by possessing potential antioxidant properties is known to revive and rejuvenate the skin.
3. Blood circulation stimulatory activity
The flavonoids of this flower also act as vein-active agents by reducing permeability and improving the blood capillaries resistance. These phytochemicals exhibit great affinity for proteins like elastin and collagen.
That is why, this flower hydrates, moisturizes, improves skin elasticity, skin collagen, blood circulation and reduces wrinkles and fine lines. This is also known to improve the blood circulation of the scalp, the volume and the elasticity of brittle hair.
4. Body sculpture activity
Lotus flowers improve skin integrity and are significantly used for their sculpture activity. For instance, body firming products or anti-cellulite treatments.
5. Depigmentation
The whole lotus plant also exhibits potent de-pigmenting properties. This helps to fade the sun spots, age spots and pigmented areas of the skin.
Lotus Flower Benefits for Hair
1. Nourishes the scalp
Lotus flower being enriched with certain minerals like iron, copper and vitamins like vitamin C and vitamin B aid to strengthen the scalp when used in form of oil or extract. Along with this, its massage helps to improve the blood flow of the scalp and helps to condition it.
The lotus oil or extract is also known to soothe the scalp, and reduce inflammation, which eventually helps to calm the scalp, and lowers the chances of any itching and dandruff.
2. Aids in hair thinning problem
The seeds of the lotus flower have the power to repair the damaged hair protein. By doing so, this flower is known to strengthen the hair, improve overall hair health and aid in resolving the problem of thinning hair.
3. Makes hair smooth & shiny
The lotus flower reduces scalp and hair irritation, and helps to keep hair managed, free from friction and frizz-free. This makes hair smooth and more healthy.
4. Prevents greying of hair
The Lotus flower itself is a potent antioxidant, which detoxifies the body, skin and hair and prevents free radicals and oxidative stress. Other than this, being rich in nutrients needed by the hair, this flower is known to stimulate melanin, the pigment that imparts colour to the skin and hair. This seriously makes this flower helpful in keeping hair protected from being grey.
5. Improves hair tensile strength
The lotus hair benefits do not end here. By reviving hair protein, this flower strengthens the hair structure and therefore the tensile strength as well. Especially the blue lotus flower significantly helps to improve hair tensile strength.
How to Use Lotus Flowers for Skin & Hair?
1. For Brighter Skin
Soak some lotus leaves in the water. After soaking well, take them out from the water, grind them, add a little milk, and honey. Apply it on your face and leave the mixture for half an hour and rinse the face with lukewarm water. Apply ultra-hydrating moisturizer or a good skin-brightening cream afterwards.
2. For acne-prone oily skin
Make the paste of lotus flower leaves (lotus leaf) and add a pinch of turmeric to it. Apply the paste on the affected area (acne) or the whole face. Rinse the face after some time with normal water.
3. For Glowing Skin
Take lotus flowers and mash the petals using pestle mortar. Add about 1 tablespoon of water during the process. Afterwards, add 1 tablespoon of masoor dal powder and milk.
Mix well the mixture and apply it to the face. Leave for about 20 minutes and rinse using normal water. Afterwards, apply vitamin C serum.
Include lotus flower enriched home remedies into your skincare routine to get amazing skin.
4. For Stronger Scalp & Hair
Lotus essential oil has potent hair care properties. Its regular application can give your hair the strength and care they need. Along with this, this oil also keeps frizzy hair calm.
Apply the lotus oil along with some carrier oil. Take 2-3 tablespoons of carrier oil (coconut oil, jojoba oil) and add 3-4 drops of lotus essential oil. Mix well and apply onto the scalp, massage and keep it as it is for about 2 to 3 hours.
Lotus flower also works synergistically with other natural ingredients to keep hair dense and healthy.
You need amla, bhringraj and lotus flower powder in equal quantities. Mix all the powder and make a fine paste by adding water to it. Apply the paste onto the scalp and hair. Leave for about an hour. Do this remedy once a week for effective results.
Sight and smell
The whole lotus flower, the size of the palm of a hand, has large petals arranged in a spiral and slightly folded inward in purple, with a lighter lilac towards the center that fades to a stronger indigo towards the outside. Numerous bright yellow stamens stand out in the center of the flower, some petal-shaped and some still closed and filamentous in shape, with purple streaks.
Once infused in water, the flower exudes fresh notes of young bamboo and anise, as well as a delicate hint of green wood.
In the cup, the liqueur is golden yellow with lime green reflections.
Tasting Notes
On the palate the liqueur reveals fresh and almost mentholated notes, with sweet hints reminiscent of anise and fennel. There are also slight vegetable hints of bamboo shoots and a slight background bitterness that suggests the taste of saffron. The body is silky and of medium density, with a fresh persistence and notes of anise that linger on the tongue.
Infusion method
We recommend preparing this flower with a classic Western-style preparation: 1 gram (or a whole flower) in 400 ml with water at 80°C for an infusion time of 2 minutes, according to personal tastes.
