Organic Cornflower
The cornflower is an annual plant adorned with pretty blue flowers. It is unfortunately endangered in the wild due to modern cultivation techniques and pesticides. Cornflower is known to soothe tired, swollen or irritated eyes, hence its nickname "glasses breaker". It is distilled only for its floral water because the plant does not contain essential oil.
