Native to Central America, archeological remains indicate that cayenne pepper has been providing heat and flavor to local cuisines for over 9,000 years! Today, this diverse pepper is grown all over the world. Used as a blood flow stimulator in traditional medicine, cayenne works to increase blood circulation, delivering fresh oxygen and necessary healing nutrients to the skin cells, reducing inflammation as it detoxifies. Cayenne’s high content of antioxidants, like skin-nourishing vitamins C, E, and A, help to increase the production of collagen while reducing the appearance of wrinkles, discoloration, or scars.

Sourcing note:
The famous heat in these impressive peppers comes from the phytochemical capsicum. The “hot” level is measured in “HU,” which stands for “Scoville Heat Units,” and can range from 0 to well over a million! We purchase our organic cayenne pepper with a rating of 35k H.U. to ensure your skin receives the circulatory-stimulating benefits without the burn.
