What it does

Avocado oil is extracted from the flesh of avocados. It is rich in oleic acid, Vitamins A, D, and E, and sterols that promote collagen synthesis and support skin repair. Its large fatty acid molecules penetrate into the upper layers of the dermis, making it more nourishing than many lighter oils.

Benefits
  • Deeply penetrating emollient for dry and mature skin
  • Supports collagen synthesis via plant sterols
  • Rich in fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E)
  • Anti-inflammatory properties
