PURE KALAHARI MELON FACIAL OIL
Kalahari Melon oil has received praise for being one of the best beauty oils in the organic skincare industry. Indigenous to South Africa, the 100% natural oil is cold pressed from the seeds of the bitter-tasting Kalahari Melon. The oil gets its name from the Kalahari Desert, where its plant grows wild. While it’s not yet as popular as its African siblings, Baobab and Argan oil, it’s fast becoming a holy-grail skincare ingredient, especially for those people with acne-prone skin.
Below are four reasons why this ingredient will be a game-changer in your acne & skin discoloration skincare routine.
ABUNDANT IN ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
The fatty acid profile of Kalahari Melon oil is rich in omega 6 essential fatty acids (linoleic acid), the building blocks of ceramides known to strengthen the skin barrier. If your skin barrier has been compromised by acne & skin discoloration, our oil will repair and restore its resilience.
LIGHTWEIGHT AND FAST ABSORBING
Our Pure Kalahari Melon Facial Oil is lightweight and non-greasy, owing to its high linoleic acid content. Unlike heavy facial oils, it absorbs quickly into your skin so won’t sit under your make-up or mask or clog your pores, owing to its low comedogenic rating of 0 -1.
OIL CONTROL
Acne & skin discoloration is aggravated by trapped sebum (oil) beneath your make-up or mask. Your sebum contains a ratio of oleic and linoleic acid. If you have acne-prone skin you’re likely to have low linoleic acid and high oleic acid levels. Oleic acid is greasy and pore-clogging. When you apply Pure Kalahari Melon Facial Oil on your skin, its high linoleic acid restores your natural stores and balances sebum levels.
HIGH LEVELS OF VITAMIN E
Kalahari Melon Oil has the highest amount of vitamin E found in any other plant oil. The antioxidant properties of vitamin E help to reduce skin irritation and inflammation, that cause acne & skin discoloration. It also nourishes, soothes and hydrates your problem skin.
