Hops

Humulus lupulus

Yes, you might immediately think of beer instead of beauty when you hear the word hops, but this plant is actually very effective in cosmetics. Thanks to its high content of flavonoids and phenolic acids, this plant has an astringent effect on the skin, helping to reduce congestion and soften it. Its high tannin content also helps to reduce skin inflammation, which is probably why it has been used in traditional medicine for many years.
