ITS ALL ABOUT THE INGREDIENTS
In addition to containing body-nourishing nutrients like protein, fiber and folate, pomegranate oil is known to contain high levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega fatty acids. This oil is particularly high in the antioxidants vitamins C and K, and is packed with up to 65% fatty acids
Anti-Aging
Based on its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and moisturizing properties, you may have guessed by now that pomegranate oil is a viable anti-aging ingredient. A compound unique to pomegranate oil called punicic acid can help to improve elasticity and even skin tone while encouraging skin regeneration.
Anti-inflammatory/Pro-hydration
As an anti-inflammatory, pomegranate oil has demonstrated an affinity for reducing redness or dry, flaky skin, especially thanks to the high concentration of omega-6 fatty acids oleic acid, linoleic acid, and palmitic acid. With its unique molecular structure, pomegranate oil is able to deeply penetrate skin and hair to deliver intense hydration.
Fades Scars and Brightens Skin
Whether your skin is a bit drier or rougher to the touch than usual, or if you have scarring or hyperpigmentation, pomegranate oil may offer salvation.
Studies have shown that pomegranate oil can encourage the production of keratinocytes, which help fibroblasts stimulate cell turnover. What this means for your skin is increased barrier function to defend against the effects of UV damage, radiation, water loss, bacteria, and more. Additionally, the naturally high reserves of vitamin C, punicic acid, and phytosterols help stimulate collagen production and cell regeneration to reveal softer, smoother skin.
Levels Up Your SPF
Pomegranate oil may even be able to boost our daily sun protection efforts. According to a 2001 study, it was found that a traditional sunscreen was made 20% more effective when mixed with pomegranate oil. Its anti-inflammatory properties will also help your skin recover from sun damage.
As we age, depleting collagen levels cause our skin to lose its firmness. Collagen is the key building block in our skin, providing both structure and elasticity – but our bodies’ natural reserves are finite.
Luckily, we can use pomegranate oil to slow the aging process, while improving overall firmness and elasticity. This is thanks to its supply of vitamin C, punicic and linoleic acids, while a spectrum of other antioxidants work to improve circulation and brighten the skin.
