REPORTED BENEFITS AND USES
Cocoa Oil, is extracted from the Cocoa beans which are found inside the fruits (pods) that grows on the Theobroma cacao tree. Cocoa Bean Oil boasts many of the same benefits as Cocoa Butter because the oil is actually obtained by filtrating (or fractionating) Cocoa Butter. During the filtration process, all of the nourishing actives in Cocoa Butter are drawn out into a concentrated oil, while the compounds that make the butter solid and waxy are left behind.
Cocoa Oil is perfect for all kinds of cosmetic products from rinse-off to leave-on, showing a great compatibility with all cosmetic ingredients.
Cocoa Oil is high in Oleic Acid, a saturated fatty acid which is highly compatible with the sebum naturally produced by our skin, which means it’s readily absorbed and is said to help the absorption of other active ingredients. Cocoa Bean Oil is also rich in antioxidants and phytochemicals, which help fight off free-radical damage to the skin, improve blood flow to the skin and slow skin-aging by protecting against damage from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Cocoa Bean Oil has also been promoted to heal rashes from conditions like eczema and dermatitis.
In hair care, the emollient properties of Cocoa Bean Oil makes it ideal for superior hydration and repair, especially for dry and damaged hair; mixing it into natural shampoos and conditioners can help increase the shine and health of the hair, and strengthen the follicles in their beds, reducing hair loss. Cocoa Oil also help activate new hair growth by increasing the blood circulation to the scalp by delivering several important vitamins and minerals.
