How is plum kernel oil obtained?

Plum kernel oil is extracted from the kernels of plums (Prunus domestica), a fruit widely consumed in Europe and around the world. The extraction method for this oil is done by cold pressing, which best preserves the nutritional properties of the fruit. Plum kernel oil is naturally rich in essential fatty acids, primarily oleic acid, and also contains a good amount of vitamin E as well as antioxidants such as phytosterols.

Properties and benefits of plum kernel oil for the skin

Let's now discover the incredible properties and benefits of plum kernel oil, a true natural treasure to enhance your skin.

Hydration and nutrition of plum kernel oil

Plum kernel oil is particularly recognized for its hydrating and nutritive properties, thanks to its richness in essential fatty acids such as oleic acid. It helps to nourish the skin while providing a certain softness, making it an ideal ally to combat skin dryness while maintaining good daily hydration.

Softening and soothing action of plum kernel oil

In addition to hydrating and nourishing the skin, plum kernel oil has a softening and suppling action. It helps to improve skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles and fine lines on the surface. This effect is particularly beneficial for people with dry or mature skin.

Antioxidant and protective properties of plum kernel oil

Among its many benefits, plum kernel oil also contains antioxidant components such as phytosterols that help protect the skin against external aggressions and oxidative stress. This property is interesting for defending our epidermis against free radicals caused by UV rays and pollution.

The benefits of plum kernel oil for hair

After exploring its benefits for the skin, let's discover how plum kernel oil can also transform your hair by providing it with care and vitality.

Hydration and nutrition of dry hair with plum kernel oil

Just like on the skin, oleic acid present in plum kernel oil helps to intensely nourish dry hair. Furthermore, used as an ingredient in hair masks or directly as an oil, it provides good hydration to strengthen the hair fiber and restore the shine of dull hair.

Scalp soothing

Plum kernel oil is also known for its soothing properties, helping to relieve an irritated or sensitive scalp. The presence of essential fatty acids helps to restore the lipid balance of the scalp while providing a sensation of comfort and softness. It is thus possible to calm itching and other unpleasant sensations while strengthening the skin barrier of the scalp.
