Essential oils have long established themselves as an excellent cosmetic product, applicable to various parts of the body. For example, peach oil has recently become especially popular . Reviews on this tool, as well as methods of application can be found below.
How oil is made
This oil is extracted by cold pressing the peach kernel. The process itself is not much remarkable - a classic press. As a result of this effect, a light yellow liquid is obtained - oil with a pleasant aroma and appropriate taste. Finding this on the market is very difficult. After all, its shelf life is quite small.
In stores, it is easier to find refined peach oil. It is lighter and has a less saturated aroma. But this practically does not affect its properties.
Vitamin Composition
Peach oil is rich in minerals and vitamins. Beauticians appreciate this oil because of its contents:
- Vitamins of group P. These components are able to improve the state of blood vessels, increasing their permeability and reducing fragility.
- Vitamins of group B. They help whiten the skin and even out its tone, making the skin visually healthy.
- Vitamins E and C. These vitamins are often taken in pill form to improve the condition of the skin and hair. Great antioxidant.
- Vitamins of group A. Cells of skin retain their integrity longer precisely because of them.
Moreover, studies show that peach oil is full of iron, phosphorus, potassium and calcium. But what does this mean in practice?
Oil properties
First of all, it is worth noting that a large number of acids contained in peach oil has an excellent ability to retain moisture in the skin without affecting its elasticity. It turns out that the product is not taken with cake, as is the case with other natural oils.
These same acids help to cope with inflammatory processes. Essential acids are not produced by the human body, therefore, the abundant content of these substances in one oil significantly reduces the cost of acquiring other cosmetics.
An interesting fact is that it is fatty acids that prevent the appearance of atherosclerosis. But that’s not all that peach oil is so valued for.
Due to the fact that the absorption time of the oil is a little less than an hour, this is an excellent basis for massage. Cosmetic peach oil allows you to gently glide over the skin without stretching it. And since a large influx of blood occurs during the massage, trace elements of the oil enter the body, improving the condition of internal organs.
Besides the pleasant smell, peach oil is absolutely hypoallergenic. This means that anyone can use it. This property is not every cosmetic product has the right to boast.
The antioxidants contained in this substance not only beneficially affect the youthfulness of the skin, but also allow it to regenerate, nourishing it with useful trace elements.
Simple application
If we talk about how to use peach oil without bothering with masks and so on, there are three main methods of application:
- Add to your favorite cream. This kind of cream enrichment will expand the range of its capabilities. Add oil not all at once to the jar, but drop by drop directly into the mass, which will be used. The perfect combination is peach oil and night cream.

Hair masks
If you take the tree as a whole, then decoctions based on leaves are especially popular. But it is used only as an air conditioner. But peach oil itself has a number of uses. Why?
It's all about the properties of peach oil. The fact is that the oil film that this substance creates not only visually improves the condition of the hair, but is also a great way to curb unruly hair and also strengthen it. The nutrients contained in the oil do not weigh down the hair. They nourish them, giving the curls a healthy shine.
To accelerate hair growth, peach oil is mixed with burdock and applied to the hair roots. It is important to wrap them in a towel and keep warm. In this way, the so-called sleeping bulbs are awakened.
Peach Oil and Health
Many say that modern cures for rhinitis help little. In this case, the use of peach oil is recommended. The instruction, which is always complete with oil, indicates that the product is dangerous only if the person has an individual intolerance to the substance.
If you feel unwell and have a runny nose, drip a few drops into each nostril. The oily base envelops the irritated surface and you feel much better.
Expert opinion
The most important thing is to find out what reviews the experts have regarding this cosmetic product. Peach oil for the face, from wrinkles, from inflammation, from damaged hair - is it really useful?
It is known that experts do not look through the eyes of an ordinary layman. They study the effect of various substances both on the uppermost layers of the dermis and on the state of everything under the skin. So, it was proved that the trace elements of peach oil, penetrating the blood, normalize its condition. By this term it is understood that due to increased elasticity of blood vessels, blood flows through them as easily as possible.
As for wrinkles, they are like tears of tissues under the skin. In places where wrinkles appear, there is very little collagen and the skin seems to fall through. Depending on the amount of collagen, the depth of the “failure” is determined - the amount of wrinkle fold. Peach oil does not fill the voids, as is done by injection. It rather softens the tissues, making them, again, more elastic. In this condition, the tissues reunite faster and, if the wrinkles do not disappear completely, then at least become less noticeable.
As mentioned earlier, in working with hair, peach oil fills the voids in the core of each hair. Thus, for those who inadequately lightened their hair by re-burning them, the use of masks with the oil in question is strongly recommended. However, for those who just want to make their hair “vitamin boom”, peach oil does not hurt at all.
Beauticians about the effect on the skin in general
