Wheatgerm Oil

Wheatgerm oil is an extremely nourishing skin conditioner. It is inherently rich in essential fatty acids, as well as antioxidants, such as Vitamins E, A, D, K. It is also packed with minerals, including potassium, zinc and iron, phosphorus and selenium. Consequently, wheatgerm oil helps to heal and repair skin tissue by building collagen. Wheatgerm oil is also antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory.

Capuaçu Butter

The Capuaçu fruit is found in the Amazon rainforest and is very closely related to cocoa. It is a very rich emollient which contains a high level of essential fatty acids and antioxidants. This helps to prevent free radical damage of skin and to restore the skin’s flexibility and elasticity. Moreover, Cupuaçu butter has a high capacity for holding water. In fact, it can hold up to 4 times its weight in water and so it is great at helping to keep the skin hydrated. For this reason, it is an effective ingredient in products for dry skin.
