Dictamelia® the purest product in the world!!!!!

The beeswax ointment had been my grandmother’s miracle balm in cases of cuts, burns or skin irritations.

It was her secret cosmetic, we used to watch her when we were young, applying it on her face and hands. Despite her age and all the housework she did, she had velvet hands and rosy cheeks.

It was so simple for her to make the miracle ointment, grandmother put her beloved coffee pot in the ember with little pure olive oil and very well graded dictamo and she mixed it every evening, for many evenings.

Days later, she strained it and left it to settle until it was perfectly clean; she put it in glass vase which should have been so clean that you could see on the opposite side.

The smell was indescribable.

The oil, said grandmother, cheated on erondas, diktamo took all that it had, it took it in order to give it to us; oil gives us all, here in Crete.

Then she congealed the shiny ointment with beeswax and the fresh remedy was ready to be used on cuts, burns or other skin irritations: a long tradition in Greece. Theofrastos first described the famous Dictamo of Crete. Also, Hippocrates used it for treating inflammations of the skin. It has been considered a miracle treatment for centuries in Greece due to its therapeutic properties. Virgilios and Dioskouridis called it the “Arrow treatment” because when wild goats would get injured by the hunters’ arrows they would chew on Dictamo leaves and put them on their wounds, which would cause their muscles to relax and allowed the arrow to come out, thus speeding up the healing process.

Olive Oil is also well known since antiquity (4.000 BC according to Defner’s research) and today we recognize, that it is rich in antioxidants and vitamins, which nourish and heal our skin. It also helps the elasticity and replenishes the valuable lipids of the skin.

The beeswax ointment is an ancient remedy, which has been passed down from generation to generation on the Greek island of Crete.

We gave this ointment the name “Dictamelia®”, which comes from the words Dictamos and Olive Oil.

We trust the product that you have in your hands and give it to you with a lot of love.
