Health & Beauty: Benefits of Almond, Castor, and Olive Oils for the Skin

Arsa Distributing has a whole line of health and beauty products that can help you get healthier and feel gorgeous. Most of the products we carry come from natural ingredients. One of our products is the Almond Oil and Castor Oil produced by Jaloma. Let’s take a look at some of the uses of these fine oils and how they can help you lead a better life.

Almond Oil

We all know that almonds are a healthy treat. Whole almonds are known to help treat cholesterol levels and treat high blood pressure. Almond oil (Aceite de Almendras) has also been linked to a variety of health benefits like stabilizing blood sugar levels and warding off heart disease. The oil contains high volumes of Vitamin E, which is a strong antioxidant. In addition to all of this, the oil also has a lot of benefits when used as a beauty product.

• Helps retain moisture. Because of emollient properties—soothing to the skin—it helps to lock in moisture, soften, and soothe damaged or dry skin.
• Protects from the sun. Due to its high levels of Vitamin E, almond oil can help protect against the effects of sun exposure.
• Reduces stretch marks. Studies done on women have shown that this alleviating oil has been proven to reduce stretch marks in the abdominal area.
• Makeup remover. This oil can also be used as a gentle makeup remover or a moisturizer for the hair and scalp.

Castor Oil

Castor oil (aceite de ricino) comes from a plant native to Africa and Asia. Because it comes from a plant, it is a vegetable oil and is pressed from castor beans. Castor oil is used in several ways including for constipation, as an additive to foods, and as effective wound care. The oil has also shown to have some benefits for the health of the skin.

• Anti-inflammatory properties. If you have irritated skin due to rash or other conditions, castor oil can help alleviate that.
• Anti-microbial. The oil also has some bacteria-fighting properties.
• Acne treatment. Because of the above-mentioned properties, castor oil can be beneficial for acne, to treat the inflammation and irritation associated with it.
• Skin cleansing. The oil contains triglycerides that are helpful in removing dirt from the skin.

Olive Oil

The Jaloma olive oil is also an effective beauty product. We all know that olive oil is a healthy additive to any diet because of its nutritional value. It is why the Mediterranean diet is often said to be good for the heart; this is because they use olive oil to cook with. Just like the other oils mentioned above, olive oil has some proven benefits for the skin.

• High in antioxidants. When applied to the skin these antioxidants can prevent the effects of aging.
• Vitamin heavy. This oil contains the fat soluble of vitamin A, D, E, and K.
• Antibacterial properties. Like castor oil, olive oil is heavy in antioxidants which means that it can also help fight some bacteria on the skin.
• Moisturizing properties. It is because of its ability to lock in moisture that olive oil is a favorite to put on the skin and on hair.
