Some herbs used to be popular for beauty in Poland. Also "pijawki" (not sure how it's in English).

There is a terrific book called, "Polish Herbs, Flowers & Folk Medicine" by Sophie Horowicz Knab with lots of useful information like that in English. I'm pretty sure you can find it in many online bookstores.
