| Résumé : |
All essential oils are produced from plants. The oils we extract have been created by the plant so that it can protect itself from degradation by external elements such as sunlight, pollution, pests and insects that might harm it.
As a plant or tree is rooted and cannot move away from harm they have to adapt very quickly to defend themselves with the only weapon they have — their oils.
Whether the oils create an odour to repel unwanted pests, are an anti-microbial to kill a fungus, or act as a shield to protect the plant from pollution, the oils contain many essentiel properties to keep the plant alive and healthy. Many of these properties are also beneficial to humans and can be used to protect, cleanse and enhance the natural beauty of our skin.
The oil content of seed ails, or carrier oils as they are also known, nourishes the new plant growing from the seed. As a result, these oils contain all the essential fatty acids to make the new shoot grow strong and healthy. These fatty acids are also essential for our skin, hair, nails and general health. Each different seed contains different levels of these omega oils (fatty acids) and can be used for specific benefits, such as strengthening hair and nails, moisturising skin and reducing lines and wrinkles. |
