How to Make Immortelle Macerate
Immortelle macerate is a highly sought-after ingredient in natural cosmetics due to its exceptional regenerative and hydrating properties.
In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the detailed process of creating immortelle macerate at Nina Natural, and explain how this golden elixir can improve your skin’s health and appearance.
What is Immortelle Macerate?
Immortelle macerate is a product created by infusing dried or fresh immortelle flowers in cold-pressed olive oil. This process allows the fat-soluble active compounds from the plant to transfer into the oil, creating a rich liquid containing concentrated beneficial ingredients for the skin.
How is Immortelle Macerate Made?
Selecting and Preparing Immortelle:
Our immortelle macerate journey begins with carefully selecting the finest immortelle flowers. The quality of the cold-pressed olive oil is equally important. We harvest the flowers at their peak, when they are brimming with beneficial compounds.
The Maceration Process
The harvested flowers are gently placed in a clean glass jar and covered with high-quality olive oil. Ensuring that every flower is completely submerged prevents any spoilage. The jar is then placed in a cool, dark place and allowed to infuse.
Periodically, the mixture is gently stirred to aid the infusion process.
Maturation
The glass jar containing the macerate is stored in a warm, dark place to allow the ingredients to infuse properly.
It’s important to let any sediment settle completely.
After 45 days, the mixture is ready for the final step.
Filtration and Purification
To create the final product, the clear, golden liquid is carefully poured through a cheesecloth into a clean container. This filtration process removes any plant matter, ensuring a pure and potent immortelle oil.

The result is immortelle macerate – an oil with exceptional skin regenerating and hydrating properties.
Benefits of Immortelle Macerate for Skin
Besides intensely hydrating and regenerating the skin, immortelle macerate also has anti-inflammatory properties, making it excellent for treating sensitive or inflamed skin. It is used to treat burns, scars, wrinkles, and other skin problems.
How do we use our macerate in the production of Nina Natural cosmetics?
Immortelle macerate is used as a base for our serum, it is the most important ingredient in our face creams, and it is one of the key ingredients in our body lotion.
Its ability to penetrate deep into the skin makes it a valuable ingredient in anti-aging cosmetics, therefore it is also important for the production of anti-wrinkle creams.
Immortelle macerate, produced in this way, represents a combination of traditional craftsmanship and science.
Consider including products with immortelle oil in your daily skincare routine with ingredients that are natural and much healthier for your skin than synthetic preparations.
