Ointment “Ziziphora”

The medicinal ointment “Ziziphora” is created by cosmetologist, doctor of biology A. O. Sahakyan, senior researcher at Yerevan Institute of Ancient Manuscripts (Matenadaran) according to the medieval formulas described in the Armenian manuscripts with regard to modern achievements in the field of cosmetology and dermatology. Cosmetic products were made “for noble ladies”, according to these medieval recipes.

The “Ziziphora” ointment contains the natural components of plants grown in alpine areas, on soil formed by volcanic rocks. Such plants are characterized by an increased content of biologically active substances – essential oils, flavonoids and tannins, other phenol compounds, vitamins, carotenoids, as well as vitally important micro-elements in a natural, balanced, easily assimilable form.

Due to the combined effect of these natural ingredients, the “Ziziphora” ointment provides an emollient and regenerative effect, increases the resistance of the skin to various irritants, smoothes and softens the surface of the epidermis, maintains the natural moistness of the skin, helps to eliminate the visible signs of ageing and to postpone this process to a later period.
