Avocado Oil, why choose it?
In the world of natural beauty, where every ingredient counts, Avocado oil stands out as a liquid treasure with multiple benefits. Discover the extraordinary benefits of Avocado oil for the skin, and how it becomes the perfect ally for a natural and responsible beauty routine.
What is its origin ?
Extracted from the creamy avocado fruit, this oil has become a true pearl in the world of natural cosmetics. Originally from Central and South America, the culture has spread to all tropical or subtropical regions (the Avocado oil from Comptoir des Huiles comes from Kenya...). This oil is appreciated not only for its flavor in cooking, but mainly for its exceptional skin care properties. Avocado vegetable oil is extracted from the fruit of the avocado tree. The pulp (60 to 75% of the fruit) has a remarkably high oil content.
What are the benefits of Avocado oil?
- Deep hydration: the fatty acids present in Avocado oil penetrate deep into the skin, providing intense and long-lasting hydration.
- Soothing dry and tight skin: the anti-inflammatory properties of Avocado oil make it an ideal choice for soothing sensitive or tight skin.
- Natural antioxidants: Vitamins A and E act as antioxidants, protecting the skin from free radicals and helping to prevent premature aging. Avocado oil thus constitutes a protective film against external aggressions (UV, pollution)
- Cellular regeneration: Vitamin D promotes the regeneration of skin cells, contributing to firmer and elastic skin. ( Avocado oil is used in anti-wrinkle preparations).
What are its characteristics ?
Avocado oil , with its thick and nourishing texture, proves to be a valuable ally for dry skin. Its generous consistency helps provide intense hydration, helping to restore the water balance of skin prone to dryness. The richness of this texture offers a feeling of comfort and protection, enveloping the skin in a nourishing layer.
Furthermore, despite its density, Avocado oil is remarkably quickly absorbed by the skin. This feature avoids any feeling of heaviness or oily film, allowing the skin to benefit from the nourishing benefits without compromising daily comfort. Thus, it offers a deep and lasting hydration experience without the disadvantages often associated with richer textures.
