text: But if teasel’s fame for transforming one’s complexion turns out to be a flash in the pan, I have no worries. It will always have a special place in my heart as a plant carnivore. In fact, research has proven that teasels produce more seeds when they eat more insects. Making the most out of what comes your way. Now if that isn’t a lesson in living well, I don’t know what is.

  It sounds like the only Carnivorous Beasties is the garden are the cosmetic companies keen to devour your hard earned cash 🙂
  Oh I love teasels, there are so many of them in the uk. I’m very puzzled about all these anti aging products coming from plants especially when you find such a tiny amount of plant based products. Is it really the secret ingredients ? I can’t be bothered to buy these product, all I need is a good moisturiser 😀
  LOL! I hear you. I really do believe they only serve to reinforce the hope-in-a-jar sell. And I wonder where they’re getting the teasels. Let’s hope they’re farming them, rather than tearing up meadows. An industrial crop of teasels would be a sight to see!
