Description

Ingredients: prunus amygdalus dulcis oil (100% pure cold pressed sweet almond oil).
Origin: USA.
Method of extraction: almond oil is extracted by cold pressing from sweet almond Prunus amygdalus dulcis nuts.

Due to its widespread use in cosmetics the composition of sweet almond oil has been well studied and the effects have been confirmed in many clinical trials. Its main components are saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, phytosterols, phospholipids. Almond oil is a combination of substances that have the property of reducing the lipid density of the skin and, as a result, facilitating the entry of other substances, with substances that form a solid film between the upper cells of the stratum corneum, which slows down water loss and prevents dehydration. Almond oil easily penetrates the skin.

Another reason for the popularity of almond oil is the very rare cases of allergy (even in children’s skin care, when the oil is used to prevent diaper dermatitis), because studies show that this oil does not penetrate into the deeper cells layers than the stratum corneum and softens it well.

Almond oil is an excellent base for other carrier and essential oils for the care of normal, sensitive, fatigue, wrinkled skin. Not recommended for very dry and oily skin. Suitable for skin with clearly visible capillaries. Gives skin softness, elasticity, velvety look and beautiful even color. Massages with almond oil are effective in case of swelling (such as under the eyes area or feet).

Almond oil is a natural antioxidant, it contains various forms of vitamin E – tocopherols and tocotrienols, which reduce cell damage when exposed to UV rays and allow to reduce the risk of signs of photoaging – early wrinkles, dryness, pigment spots.

Almond oil softens dry and tough hair. When used before washing, it helps protect against protein loss and drying out, especially when using hair styling devices. Due to its ability to penetrate the scalp well and facilitate the entry of other substances, it is an excellent carrier oil for essential oils to improve their effectiveness, especially against hair loss.

    Kas dar nebandėte, siūlau įsigyti. Puikus aromatas, kad ir nestiprus. Puikiai drėkina odą, išsausėjusias lūpas, bei plaukus. Aliejaus kondensacija man labai patiko (ypač švelnus, greitai įsigeria). Švelniai gelsvos spalvos. Aliejaus butelis tamsios spalvos, stiklinis su specialiu lašintuvu, (tad aliejus nesioksiduoja). Prie savo užsakymo gavau papildomą dovanėlę (muilą) 🙂 Muilas puikaus aromato, atrodo kokybiškas. Esu patenkinta savo užsakymu ir aptarnavimu. Rekomenduoju :))
