NEEM OIL
Nourishing, softening, purifying!
Neem (or Margoussier) oil is used in the Ayurvedic tradition to purify blemished skin and ward off insects and parasites. This oil is rich in omega-9, making skin suppler and softer. The skin is nourished and cleansed of impurities. Neem oil has numerous benefits for skin and hair. Its green to brown colour and spicy scent are typical of Neem oil. We recommend that you dilute this oil in another oil to enjoy its benefits on your skin or hair. This oil is particularly recommended for oily and acne-prone skin. It's also an excellent oil for the scalp and dandruff.
The botanical minute
Lasting up to 200 years and growing to 20 metres tall, Neem or Margousier is a tree that thrives in warm regions. Its fragrant flowers turn into small yellow edible fruits, from which Neem oil is extracted. Neem leaves have a very bitter taste. They are consumed in the Ayurvedic tradition to 'purify the blood'. Neem oil is extracted from cold-pressed Margoussier seeds.
