High in nutritional value and some amazing health benefits, pomegranate is rightly known as a ‘divine fruit.’
As much as it is well known for its health benefits, the oil pressed from its seeds is also widely used in skincare products for keeping the skin young and radiating.
Here are some of the benefits of pomegranate seed oil for your skin-
- It helps in the stimulation of ‘keratinocytes’ which are cells found in the outer layer of the skin. This helps to fight the signs of ageing and keep the skin younger.
- It contains a particular Omega 5 fatty acid called ‘punicic acid ‘ which is highly anti-inflammatory and increases the skin’s ability to fight against free radicals. The nutrients are directly delivered in the cells, speeding up the cell regeneration process and reducing the visible signs of ageing.
- Pomegranate seed oil is lightin nature therefore it penetrates easily into the skin without leaving it greasy and sticky. It can also be used for treating acne, minor scarring and irritated skin.
- It is loaded with antioxidants that help to improve the texture of the skin and even increase collagen production.
- It helps in protecting the skin and even reversing the effects of sun damage on the skin. Vitamin c in pomegranate oil helps to reverse the sun damage on the skin.
This is the reason pomegranate seed oil is used in creating natural skincare products. So enjoy the benefits of this precious oil in serums and potions to reduce the signs of ageing on the skin and helping it glow with health.
