Autumn is approaching, the air is cooling and the landscape is tinged with warm hues, and with it, tasty fruits such as clementines, chestnuts and the much-loved red pomegranate are returning to the table. In this article, we aimed to take a closer look at the properties of one of the most distinctive ingredients in Origine face cream: pomegranate. Nowadays, it turns out to be one of the most appreciated ingredients to be included in the beauty routine to get a young and elastic skin thanks to its valuable properties. But let’s find out more about them together.
Most of the nutrients are found in the seeds of the fruit, which contain conspicuous presence of water and fatty oil. The fatty oil in question is made of punicic acid, vitamin E (famous for its antioxidant properties) and anthocyanins, ellagic acid and tannins, or polyphenols that, specifically, help keeping the skin young and elastic. The oil is a veritable concentrate of properties, all beneficial for the skin:
- First of all, it is antioxidant, so it prevents cell aging;
- It is soothing: therefore it acts against skin irritation and redness.
- It strengthens the hydro-lipid film, thus helping the skin defend itself against external agents.
Pomegranate also presents itself as an excellent ally in protecting the skin from UV rays, counteracting the formation of free radicals, so it prevents skin aging. The benefits are immediately noticeable in the appearance of the skin, which looks younger, brighter and healthier.
In short, pomegranate is not only good to eat or drink via smoothies, but it is a true ally of green beauty and the points in favor of its use in cosmetics are many. Specifically, to counter the advance of signs of aging, it is essential to act on the production of collagen and elastin; in this, pomegranate promotes their production thanks to the massive presence of vitamin C, capable of deep hydration.
Origine aims to rediscover and re-establish the primordial contact with nature that has always united man and the environment. Therefore, the face cream has been carefully formulated and tested by our experts as a natural, environmentally friendly solution for the skin. The ingredients are 100% natural.
