This deeply penetrating, beautifully orange carrot vegetable oil is ideal in skincare to prepare the skin for tanning or to brighten the complexion. It’s the famous beta-carotene that gives this lipid extract its beautiful color. Although potent, it is well tolerated by everyone—even those with oily skin, who particularly appreciate it. It can be used to prepare the skin for sun exposure or throughout the year for unparalleled radiance.
Carrot maceration oil is renowned for its many skin-benefiting properties. First and foremost, its high vitamin content—particularly vitamin A and beta-carotene—makes it a valuable ally in strengthening the skin’s natural defenses and fighting free radicals responsible for skin aging. When applied regularly to the skin, it helps prevent premature aging and maintain healthy, radiant skin.
When mixed in equal parts with avocado and St. John’s wort oils, carrot maceration oil provides additional protection against external aggressors such as cold, wind, and the sun’s UV rays. This combination of nourishing and protective oils forms a natural barrier on the skin, shielding it from damage caused by environmental factors while providing the essential nutrients it needs to stay healthy.
Thanks to its ability to stimulate melanin production, carrot maceration oil is ideal for preparing the skin for tanning and achieving a radiant, even complexion. When applied regularly before sun exposure, it helps prolong and intensify your tan while protecting the skin from the harmful effects of UV rays. In addition, its brightening and revitalizing properties make it the perfect treatment for illuminating the complexion and minimizing skin imperfections.
We also offer St . John’s Wort macerate from Pranarom, a laboratory specializing in aromatherapy, at the best price in our online pharmacy.
Oral use: 10 g (1 tablespoon) per day.
