They nourish, moisturize or soften. And leave on our skin that famous velvet touch that we love so much. Because the strength of vegetable oils is their great affinity with our skin. A remarkable compatibility between the precious essential fatty acids they contain and our own sebum.

restorative oils

The regenerative, powerful properties of vegetable oils are due above all to the most restorative part of their fatty acids, the unsaponifiables (especially in avocado and shea), or those with a long chain, such as the famous gamma-linolenic acids present in borage (25%) or evening primrose (10%) oil.

Our body has a great need for these essential fatty acids to stay in good working order. He draws them either in the diet or topically (the skin) since he does not manufacture them.

The list of vegetable oils in cosmetics

  • Muscat rose oil: for its ability to regenerate dry skin and reduce traces of scars.
  • Camellia oil: for its beautifying properties for the neck and hair.
  • Evening primrose oil: very revitalizing and anti-aging for tired skin.
  • Nigella oil: for its purifying and treating properties which help oily skin and acne-prone skin.

Care oil in 3 steps

Not an anti-wrinkle or firming formula that does not claim their virtues. But you can also use vegetable oils alone, in their original version. Less sticky and lighter that many creams, a few drops are enough and melt quickly into the skin. Take advantage of the moment of application to develop your olfactory and tactile abilities.

To feel : just for fun, get used to recognizing what you are going to put on your skin. Sweet almond oil or argan oil? Easy ! Hazelnut or wheat germ oils? More subtle!

Energize: pour a few drops in the palm of your hands (very quickly, you will become an expert in the right dosage: at the beginning, we always put too much). Then, give yourself the time to heat them between your fingers. Your heat will energize the precious liquid, elixir-like.

To feed : do not apply with your fingertips! The palms should be in good contact with your skin. Be generous with yourself. We do much more than apply or spread an oil, we offer it to our skin. Like a tasty gift from the plant kingdom.

My beauty oil, when do I put it on?

It can apply alone or before your day cream. Every day or as a 28-day attack cure at the change of season if your skin is dull, tired.
