Science

Mechanism of Action

This oil permeates all epidermal and dermal layers, inhibiting elastase and collagenase activity to prevent the degradation of vital structural proteins, which in turn improves skin elasticity and smoothness. It functions as a powerful antioxidant, combating free radicals induced by sun exposure and reducing oxidative stress through its rich content of polyphenols and xanthones, thereby protecting against signs of aging like wrinkles and hyperpigmentation. The oil also promotes natural collagen synthesis, enhancing firmness. Its linoleic acid content strengthens the skin's moisture barrier and mitigates inflammation, while oleic acid ensures deep, sustained hydration, resulting in a soft and supple feel. Additionally, it exhibits anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects beneficial for irritated or acne-prone skin.
