St. John’s Wort Oil extract (Hypericum perforatum) is a flowering plant native to Europe, including Greece.
The oil extract is traditionally made by macerating the yellow flowers in olive oil (often Greek extra virgin olive oil) and leaving the jar in the sun for several weeks until the oil turns a deep red.

Traditional Greek Preparation

-Fresh blossoms of St. John’s Wort are harvested around St. John’s Day (June 24th)—hence the name.
-Flowers are placed in a jar and completely covered with olive oil.
-The jar is left in sunlight for about 4–6 weeks.
-The oil is strained, producing a ruby-red oil used for external application.

Uses & Benefits

-Traditionally in Greece, St. John’s Wort oil has been used for:
-Skin healing: burns, wounds, insect bites, scars.
-Muscle/joint relief: massage oil for sore muscles, rheumatic pain.
Anti-inflammatory: helps with mild skin irritation.
Nerve pain: sometimes applied topically for sciatica or neuralgia.

⚠️ Safety Notes

-For external use only (unless specifically formulated and labeled otherwise).
-Can make skin photosensitive → avoid direct sun exposure on treated skin.
