Avocado Oil Benefits

It’s no surprise how amazing, nutritious and delicious our avocado fruit is to our body. Avocado oil is packed with vitamins, protein, copper, fiber and monounsaturated fats that help to develop cells both in AND outside of your body. Avocados deserve all the praise they get and more! It’s an amazingly versatile resource that widely benefits dozens of beauty needs.

Avocado oil can be gently massaged into the skin, added to a face mask, or mixed to creams, lotionsbody oilsshower gels, and lots of other bath and beauty products.

A great advantage of this oil is that it is suitable for most skin without negative effects.

One of the qualities that make avocado oil stand out from the other oils is the level of oleic acid it contains. Oleic acid is a fatty acid that is known for its enhancement of skin permeability. Our skin is a layer of protection that is designed to keep the bad stuff out and the good stuff in.

Oleic acid is what helps our skin open up the gates to welcome in the nutrients and while most oils hover around 15% oleic acid composition, avocado is comprised of a whopping 63% of the fatty acid!

Because of the high levels of oleic acid, avocado oil is a well – known ‘carrier oil’. This means that you can combine avocado oil with other essential oils so that the nutrients from those oils can be delivered to the skin and be absorbed more effectively.

With oleic acid levels like that, what kinds of healthy goodness is our skin absorbing from avocado oil? Well, the answer to that question is quite the long list!

  • Vitamins A, B, D, and E
  • Potassium
  • Lecithin
  • Amino Acids
  • Antioxidants
  • Sterolins
  • Linoleic Acid
  • Phytosterols
  • Beta Carotene
  • Omega 3 Fatty Acids

Another interesting fact about avocado oil is it acts as a humectant, which retains and preserves the moisture in your skin.

Avocados oils are extremely rich in fatty acids and vitamin E, which translates to insane levels of skin moisturization!
