Avocados are great to eat, and full of good vitamins. But do avocados have any role in natural skin care?

Nature has provided us with some wonderful natural substances that do so much for our skin.

Phytessence Wakame, a Japanese seaweed, has amazing properties for good skin health, and is one of the reasons why Japanese women have such great looking skin right into old age. They eat Phytessence Wakame as part of their diet.

How about Xtend TK taken from the wool of sheep. A wonderful compound so helpful in getting our skin to regrow more of it’s own collagen and elastin, 2 essential skin proteins.

But avocados also have a role in good skin care. Avocados have an oil that is packed full of great ingredients.

Avocado oil skin care products make use of the fact that avocado oil is a very rich oil which has been used for centuries for it’s moisturizing properties. It’s a wonderful natural moisturizer and the natural skin care products from Xtend Life make use of it extensively.

Avocado oil is full of vitamins, particularly vitamins A,D and E, lecethin, beta-carotene and potassium, all beneficial to the skin. It has a range of mono unsaturated fatty acid and other essential acids as well as plant steroids.

Unlike the steroids you might normally read about, plant steroids are good for us, and for our skin.

The use of skin care products with avocado is particularly helpful to anyone with dry or sun damaged skin, as avocado oil helps rejuvenate skin and keep it more moist, and reduce itching and dryness well.

Avocado oil is also very good at helping reduce age spots.

And a study in Israel shows that avocado oil will help the skin produce collagen as well.And the more skin collagen our bodies can produce the healthier your skin will be.

So a great range of natural skin care products should always contain avocado oils.
