💡 Daisy Macerated Oil: definition and composition

With its small Latin name, Bellis Perennis, the daisy is a humble flower that is part of our daily lives.

In oil form, it embodies the perfect symbiosis between nature and science.

In cosmetic chemistry, its precious components are well known for their actions on skin laxity. They are called flavonoids, phytosterols and other saturated and unsaturated fatty acids.

Get to know these mini-components with maxi-powers. And discover all the benefits of our organic daisy oil!

✨ The power of flavonoids to reshape your tissues

The flavonoids present in daisy macerate are one of the essential protagonists of the skin tightening effect. They are also found under the name of vitamin P.

They have multiple benefits:

• antioxidant,
• anti-inflammatory,
• immunostimulant, etc.

The antioxidant action is very useful for fighting oxidative stress: the effects of UV (even in winter!), tobacco, air pollution, etc.

In natural form, flavonoids are found in certain ingredients, particularly red wine and tea. They act as a protective shield against free radicals responsible for premature skin aging. They also play the role of stabilizing agents by strengthening cellular structure.

This accentuated protection contributes to increased firmness, thus forming the first building block of the tightening effect.

🌿 Phytosterols: the architects of skin elasticity

Phytosterols, also called plant sterols, play a primary role in the phenomena of skin elasticity.

Taken orally, they fight against blood cholesterol.

When applied to the skin, they act through several mechanisms:

• They have a high skin absorption capacity (= humectant agent), which gives them the role of super moisturizer!
• Thanks to their actions on various enzymes, they have an interesting anti-inflammatory role in cases of redness, discomfort, or tightness.
• They act on fibroblast growth factors that accelerate the synthesis of collagen and elastin: these natural compounds are undeniable allies in the fight against skin laxity, as well as in the case of minor injuries and acne scars.

These contributions to tissue repair, enhanced hydration, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant actions, give the skin much better tone.

🗝️ Unsaturated fatty acids: key to epidermal suppleness

Unsaturated fatty acids have multiple virtues.

Daisy oil is mainly composed of linoleic and oleic fatty acids.

Polyunsaturated fatty acids: linoleic acid and gamma-linoleic acid (omega 6) and alpha-linoleic acid (omega 3)

They maintain the skin barrier function, hydration and ensure the passage of nutrients into the skin.

Omega 6 absorbs quickly, without leaving a greasy residue, and penetrates deeply into the layers of the skin.

Oils rich in gamma-linolenic acids are anti-inflammatory and restorative: they play a role in reducing the appearance of scars and other skin irregularities.

🪔 Saturated fatty acids present in daisy oil

Daisy macerated oil contains stearic and palmitic acids, known as saturated fatty acids. They have the property of being stable, resistant to microbial attacks, and environmental aggressions.

As you have understood, fatty acids, flavonoids and phytosterols have various properties that are very interesting for skin tone.

Let's now explore how hydration promotes the skin tightening effect?

💦Why does hydration increase the skin tightening effect?

Most fatty acids have a hydrating function in addition to other properties. Just like phytosterols. This hydration penetrates far beyond the simple skin surface.

By filling the deep cells of the epithelium, water plumps up the tissues, thus tightening its outer surface. In addition to the supple appearance, this provides increased firmness.

Imagine a dried-up apple that has stayed too long in the sun: its surface is all wrinkled. Inject water deep into it, you will plump it up completely, wrinkles and fine lines will still exist, but tightened thanks to the deep hydration of the tissues.

Daisy macerated oil for mature skin

Mature skin gradually loses its firmness and elasticity over time. The natural properties of our organic daisy oil act in synergy with skin physiology. Real support to accompany aging!

Flavonoids, along with plant sterols and fatty acids, act as regulatory agents, stimulating collagen and elastin production, also protecting the skin against loss of elasticity. This double action gives your skin a renewed feeling of firmness. The appearance of wrinkles and fine lines is improved.

Daisy oil during pregnancy

Organic daisy oil proves to be a valuable ally for pregnant women looking for safe and beneficial skin care. Enriched with the essential nutrients mentioned above, this natural macerate offers deep hydration and soothes sensitive skin, often subject to hormonal changes during pregnancy.

The absence of harsh chemicals in daisy oil makes it an ideal choice for expectant mothers concerned about the health of their skin and that of their baby.

Unlike many conventional skin care products that may contain potentially harmful ingredients, daisy oil is free of toxic substances and recognized for its harmlessness.

Its regular use helps to maintain skin elasticity, thus helping to prevent the appearance of stretch marks frequently associated with pregnancy.

Focus on at-risk areas during this transitional period: breasts, belly, buttocks, hips, and upper thighs. A natural wellness gesture to envelop future mothers. And for your newborn, consider organic sweet almond oil, and oleo-calcareous liniment, precious allies for new skin.

Our grandmothers' daisy recipes

The use of daisy dates back to the Renaissance. Women used to use it on the body to maintain the shape of the breasts and bust, where the skin is thinner. Its name Bellis Perennis comes from Latin: bellis for beautiful, charming; perennis for perennial because it is a perennial plant that blooms around Easter, hence its name daisy. This custom has been passed down from generation to generation of women. It was lost, like many grandmother's recipes with the progress of chemistry, which preferred for some years to manufacture synthetic ingredients. It is returning to the forefront for the greatest pleasure of our skin!

Regarding its application, the mechanical action of massage adds even more effectiveness in cell renewal. Use after showering is recommended, moisturized skin allows for even better hydration!
