Massage oil – SHANTI

The base of the oil is organic unrefined sunflower oil. It is characterized by a high content of unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid, which is built into the structures of the cell membrane and used to produce properly built ceramides. As a result, sunflower oil exhibits healing and antibacterial effects, strengthens the skin’s lipid barrier, improves hydration, levels inflammation and normalizes skin metabolism. In addition, it contains a lot of vitamin E and approx. 1% phospholipids, half of which is lecithin. Phospholipids bind water and improve skin hydration. Also valuable is the presence of sterols, compounds that are also found in human skin and are essential for its proper functioning. The phenolic compounds present in unrefined oil are antioxidants and protect the skin from free radicals. This oil is suitable for both dry and delicate skin and oily skin, as it is classified as a non-comedogenic oil. The application of linoleic acid to oily and acne-prone skin results in the regulation of sebaceous glands, unclogging skin pores and reducing blackheads.

Thanks to the high content of wax esters, rich especially in eicosenoic acid, similar in structure to the natural waxes present in the skin, jojoba oil is quickly absorbed into the skin penetrating into the deeper layers of the epidermis. It protects the skin from excessive water loss, leaving a velvety and non-greasy finish. The high content of vitamin E shows antioxidant and anti-aging properties. In addition, due to its structure similar to natural sebum components and antibacterial action, it can reduce oily skin.
