Known as the “skin tree” of the Mayas, mimosa tenuiflora, or “tepezcohuite”, is a shrub found in Central America, in the state of Chiapas, on a narrow strip of land located at an altitude of 800 - 1000 m. According to Indian tradition, the powder obtained from the bark has magical properties and helps to heal wounds. The Mexican earthquake of 1985 and the shortage of medicines that followed, brought this special tree's therapeutic benefits back into the spotlight and it is now recognised as part of Mexico’s national heritage. Thanks to its healing properties, mimosa tenuiflora has demonstrated an exceptional capacity to restore damaged skin.
