Passion fruit seed oil (organic)
Passiflora edulis
INCI: PASSIFLORA EDULIS SEED OIL
Amazing Emollient With An Anti-Ageing Ability
Passion fruit or maracuja oil is a lightweight oil pressed from the seeds of the passion fruit (Passiflora edulis).
An excellent source of essential fatty acids and antioxidants (such as vitamin E and carotenoids), passionfruit oil also locks in moisture and acts as an exceptional emollient.
Passion fruit oil has an exceptionally light texture; although very gentle on the skin, it is highly effective. Due to the high content of vitamin C, carotenoids and polyphenols, it softens the skin and helps regulate surface oils.
Due to the high content of linoleic acid, it is suitable for all skin types.
Research also suggests that it contains substances that encourage collagen synthesis.
