But in topical creams, it often has a hard time getting past the outer layer of skin because it is comprised of fairly large molecules. As a workaround, the most effective eye cream will use sodium hyaluronate instead, a derivative that is more easily absorbed into the skin because it has smaller molecules.
Allspice takes its name from its aroma, which smells like a combination of spices, especially cinnamon, cloves, ginger and nutmeg. In much of the world, allspice is called pimento because the Spanish mistook the fruit for black pepper, which the Spanish called pimienta.
Allspice comes from the dried, green berries of Pimenta dioica, a central American tree of the myrtle family (Myrtaceae). It is also known as pimento; however, the red pimentos that are stuffed into green olives are actually a variety of sweet chile pepper (Capsicum annuum) that belongs to the nightshade family (Solanaceae).
