Cannes: Northern Borders Region Wild plants in the Northern Borders Region have long embodied one of the most prominent aspects of natural beauty in Arab women's lives, with elements of the desert environment transformed into traditional adornment tools. These plants reflect the deep bond between people and their surroundings, shaping an inherited aesthetic identity rooted in nature.

According to Saudi Press Agency, the Al-Kaheel plant, known scientifically as Heterocaryum, is a seasonal wild plant that flourishes in the region's pastures during spring. It is distinguished by its dark red roots, historically associated with cosmetic uses. The plant was used to adorn the eyes and accentuate facial features, demonstrating a linguistic and cultural convergence between the plant's name and its function.

Another plant, Al-Naqd, or Asteriscus graveolens, is an aromatic plant that also thrives in the region. It serves as an important element in beauty and personal care traditions. Essential oils extracted from its leaves were used to make perfumes and scent hair and clothing, reflecting a refined sensory palette among women in the region. This practice affirms nature's presence in the details of their daily lives.
