Pomegranate has been used since ancient times for medicinal benefits and is the symbol of prosperity and abundance in many cultures.
Science has since discovered the many benefits of Pomegranate in skincare and the results are simply mind blowing. Lets dive into the many benefits of incorparating pomegranate into you daily skincare routine.
Anti-Aging:
Pomegranate seeds contain an oil rich in polyphenols and bioflavonoids, powerful antioxidants that fight the skin's ageing process.
These antioxidants help fade the appearance of age spots, blemishes, fine lines and wrinkles. They also help regenerate skin from sun damage and make it look firmer, more radiant and youthful.
Pomegranate oil penetrates deeply into the skin and hydrates.. It also soothes dry, cracked, and irritated skin and prevents moisture loss.
Pomegranate also helps with cell regeneration in the epidermis, increases circulation and helps to heal the skin. It's been used for wound healing for many years and is a great natural choice for tissue repair.
Skin Exfoliator:
To enjoy radiant and beautiful skin, we need to exfoliate it to eliminate the dead skin cells. Exfoliating unclogs the pores, can help reduce acne, improves the texture of your skin and promotes healthy ageing.
Pomegranate contains enzymes that break down the dead skin cells and is a gentle option over various AHA chemical exfoliants.
Protects from Sun Damage:
Omega-5 Fatty acids found in Pomegranate oil protect our skin from free radicals caused from pollution and the Sun. Sun exposure is one of the major causes of premature ageing.
However, always wear sunscreen even if you're using pomegranate skincare!
When it comes to Anti-aging Serums Pomegranate should always be a key ingredient. This is one of the many reasons S|Kay has incorporated it in Arabia's Secret Hydrating and Anti-aging Serum.
