Abyssinian Oil (Crambe Abyssinica)
Who would have thought that Abyssinian oil could be the best kept secret for antiaging skincare? This exotic oil is not readily available, so I was over the moon excited to find a supplier of Abyssinian oil for my skincare line. When I read about the benefits of this oil, I simply couldn’t resist! The oil has a velvety skin feel that I absolutely love, and it is light enough it will never clog your pores!
The Abyssinian plant is native to Ethiopia and the Mediterranean area, but they have finally started growing it in certain parts of the USA now. The molecular structure in Abyssinian oil is different from any other oil on the market. It contains an unusually high level of Erucic acid (50-65%). This is an omega 9 oil that consists of long strands of fatty acids that make the skin feel silky smooth. This makes it the very best natural alternative to heavy mineral oils and pore clogging silicones..
Amazing Benefits of Abyssinian Oil
– the oil is easily absorbed into the skin without leaving a sticky feel
– resistant to oxidation, which means it doesn’t go rancid very quickly
– promotes incredibly smooth, velvety, supple skin and helps reduce wrinkles
– penetrates deep into the skin without clogging the pores
– creates a protective barrier that prevents evaporation of water
– antiaging, promotes softness and plumpness
– soothing and calming on red, irritated or sensitive skin
– brings back radiance to dull skin
All of these benefits make Abyssinian oil an excellent choice for natural skincare. Lucky for you, I have chosen Abyssinian oil to be one of the core ingredients in my skincare line.
