Pomegranate Seed Oil

Description

Virgin Organic Pomegranate Seed Oil is obtained from the seeds which are found inside the fruit in a white spongy tissue. It is a cold-pressed extracted carrier oil exhibiting strong antioxidant activity. This raw ingredient is a rare natural source of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), an Omega-6 fatty acid which has many health benefits. The antioxidant content in the oil acts as a protectant to skin and hair against environmental oxidative damage.

A report in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that Pomegranate oil stimulates ‘keratinocytes’, which are the major cells found in the epidermis (the outer layer of the skin). Helping to regenerate these cells, may actually help to reverse past damage and revive the skin to reveal a fresher and more youthful appearance.

Pomegranate provides hydrating relief to the skin, helping with dry skin, eczema, psoriasis and sunburned skin. Just like the Pomegranate, the oil has high antioxidant content, mainly due to it’s high content of ellagic acid. By fending off damaging free radicals, the oil helps keep the skin looking young and can provide some protection against the sun.

Pomegranate oil is rich in punic acid (This cosmetic active ingredient is contained in our pomegranate seed oil at a level of over 60%, which helps to revitalise and strengthen the hair, making it strong, lustrous and healthy. The high antioxidant and vitamin content help increase the blood flow and circulation in the scalp, helping to reduce flakiness and itchiness of the scale. Pomegranate oil is ideal for dandruff, hair dullness, dryness and thinning of the hair.
