Green coffee oil (macerate)

INCI: Caprilic/ Capric Triglyceride , Coffea Arabica (Green Coffee) Seed Oil

Green coffee oil (macerate) (macerate) has a very strong property of keeping water in your skin which greatly improves moistening and makes it softer and younger. 

Research shows that green coffee oil moistens 6 times stronger than jojoba or almond oil. Its moistening properties are the result of high content of phytosterols and high concentration of linolenic acid - Omega 6. Phytosterols belong to unsaponifiable fraction - they are vegetable compounds and equivalent of natural sterols present in your skin. The deficiency of these sterols upsets skin protective barrier. The oil has intensive antioxidative properties very effective against free radicals, which cause premature damage and ageing of your skin cells. These oxidative properties of the green coffee oil are the result of high content of vitamin E. Additionally, phytosterols improve elasticity and cohesion of your skin. Large amounts of phytosterols, including beta-sitosterol, also regulate the work of sebaceous glands and prevent greasy skin.

The oil has intensive antioxidative properties great against free radicals which cause premature damage and ageing of your skin cells. These oxidative properties of the green coffee oil are the result of high content of vitamin E. Tocopherols which are vitamin E contained in unripe coffee fruits are natural and the most effective antioxidants soluble in fats. A natural form of vitamin E should be applied externally. Then, it can penetrate your skin deeply and protect it against stress which has oxidative effect. The coffee oil prevents photo-ageing which is a premature form of skin ageing caused by harmful external factors (UV). It has regenerative, moistening, and anti-inflammatory properties. Besides it accelerates healing process and alleviates erythema solare.
