Jasmine Oil - The King of Essential Oils is Amazing for Skin, Mind and Body
Why Jasmine Oil is the Perfect Ingredient for Timeless Beauty
With one whiff, the scent of Jasmine oil brings an exotic allure. Eliciting a sense of romance, the arousing natural aroma isn’t the only thing Jasmine oil has going for it. This special oil is wonderful for skin health, helps improve your mood, aids in overcoming stress and is even believed by many to assist in balancing hormones.
What is Jasmine Oil?
Jasmine comes from the genus of shrubs that are part of the olive family. There are about 200 different species of this extraordinary plant which thrives in warm climates. The flowers have to be picked very carefully (so as to not bruise the petals) under the moonlight when the temperatures wane, part of the reason it is one of the most expensive essential oils to work with. Another reason Jasmine oil is expensive is that it takes about 7.6 million flowers to produce just one kilogram of Jasmine essential oil.
This beautiful flower has been written about since ancient times. In China, it was adored by royalty and traded on the Silk Road while in Egypt, the world’s most legendary beauty, Cleopatra used in in perfumery. Even Louis XVI was a fan.
But the beauty of Jasmine goes beyond its heavenly fragrance to deliver benefits skin-deep and beyond, making it an ideal central star for formulations like our Signature Night Recovery Face Oil and and Relax & Nourish Body Oil.
Here are some of the reasons Indagare Natural Beauty love formulating with Jasmine oil:
- Amazing anti-ageing effects
It should come as little surprise that something that smells so exquisite and intoxicating can help slow the hands of time. But with a bounty of antioxidants, Jasmine is ideal for chasing away environmental aggressors to leave skin looking refreshed and vibrant. Plus, when you use it at night, it helps your skin cells produce more collagen to keep skin supple and firm.
- Improved skin tone
When skin isn’t in harmony, it creates an aged appearance. Jasmine oil is fantastic at fading away age spots.
- Rich hydration
All skin types need oils (yes,even oily skin should find the right oil for them - but that is another blog!), and Jasmine oil is one that should not clog pores. It helps infuse the skin with deep-down moisturisation to keep skin soft and supple. It’s particularly amazing for those with dry, parched, or ageing skin.
- Gentle for sensitive skin
If the scent of Jasmine soothes you, then you’ll be happy to know that it can soothe your skin too. By using products with this esteemed ingredient onto your skin, you’ll comfort and calm inflammation and irritation without instigating breakouts.
Jasmine has other benefits too that tie into that luscious fragrance. It has very calming effects, ideal for busting stress. Plus, if you want to bring the romance, use our Relax & Nourish Body Oil since Jasmine is a known aphrodisiac. Get ready for date-night-in! When you’re ready to sleep on it, Jasmine is also fantastic for helping you catch more of those elusive Z’s.
Why not start relaxing more, sleeping better, and waking up to more beautiful skin? Jasmine oil helps with all of that for an improved quality of life and a natural way to your best skincare routine.
