Peaches and Peach Oil

When it comes down to looking “pretty as a peach,” clients may not have to look much further than the peach itself.  That’s because there are many skin benefits from Peach Oil, or more specifically the oil of the peach kernel, which is why the ingredient is used extensively in many skin lotions and creams, body and facial massage lubricants and hair care products.

 

Originally cultivated in China, the peach tree eventually made its way to Europe and from there was brought to the New World by the Spanish.  The Peach Kernel Oil is obtained by crushing the peach kernels, pressing the resulting oil and then refining it. Peach Kernel Oil is valued because it is easily absorbed by the skin and so doesn’t leave it feeling greasy and because it contains high content of vitamins and polyunsaturated acids.

 

Most notably, Peach Kernel Oil is rich in Vitamin E, which is an antioxidant and so removes harmful free radicals. Also the presence of Vitamin E makes Peach Kernel Oil stable, giving it a shelf life of up to two years.  Peach Kernel Oil also contains several varieties of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which aid skin growth and health and are considered valuable in maintaining skin elasticity.
