Vegetable oils: what uses?

Highly prized for their many properties, botanical oils are the ingredients of choice in cosmetics. To take care of hair or skin, to nourish, moisturize, protect or soothe, they work wonders on all skin types!

Formulated from rigorously selected and certified organic plants, our botanical oils are particularly well suited to natural cosmetic care and can be a real added value in your "home" preparations. Combined with clay, essential oils or other natural ingredients such as yogurt, fruits or vegetables, they will allow you to create real concentrates of benefits.

Applied alone, botanical oils also have many uses: as a make-up remover, serum, for a massage or to relax the muscles after a sports session for example, botanical oils have a thousand and one possible uses.

Did you know that?

Botanical oils are also essential in aromatherapy. Indeed, they make excellent dilution bases for essential oils which, being very powerful, cannot be applied pure on the skin. The ideal is therefore to combine the powers of the essential oil with those of the botanical oil for a maximum effect!

How to choose your botanical oil?

There is a multitude of botanical oils. If they all have undeniable virtues, it is however essential to choose your oil according to your skin type (dry, oily, mature, sensitive...) and your needs (hydration, anti-redness...).

Organic sweet almond oil, for example, is ideal for sensitive, dry and reactive skin thanks to its soothing and protective action. Less known and yet perfect for absolutely all skin types, Calophyllum oil can be used in your repairing care, eye contour care and even in massage against heavy legs.

To help you choose the oil that will suit you best, don't hesitate to consult our complete guide to botanical oils.

What precautions to take?

Botanical oils are real assets in the world of cosmetics. Thanks to their numerous powers, they are among the star ingredients in the preparation of home cosmetics.

In order to take advantage of all their benefits when they are applied alone, we advise you to warm the oil well by rubbing it between your hands. This will allow it to better penetrate your skin and provide all its nutrients to your skin.

Before using it, it is important to know that most botanical oils do not contain any sun protection factor. Some of them, like St. John's wort oil, are even photosensitizing, which means that they can cause reactions and redness if applied before exposure to the sun. To avoid any risk, we advise you to read our guide on botanical oils.
