In Asia, they call it "shiso", but perilla also goes by the name of the purple mint, Japanese basil or the beefsteak plant. It is widely used in Asian cuisine and the medical field for its anti-allergenic and antioxidant properties. In addition, perilla seeds produce oil very high in omega 3, an essential fatty acid the skin cannot synthesize.
