Why do these ingredients help very dry skin?
Firstly avocado oil helps to deeply nourish, protect and restructure the epidermis. Moreover, it has an anti-aging effect. Wheatgerm oil is very antioxidant as well as having anti aging properties which carefully nourishes tight, scaly skin. Lemon can help to tone, strengthen and soothe the skin while also making it brighter. Rose geranium can help to heal and regenerate uncomfortable skin. It also has a very nice scent when mixed with the others. Lastly, cypress oil looks after the circulation and our legs. However it is not absolutely necessary that you use cypress oil. It just helps to make it a more complete product.
