According to Indian Ayurveda & historical texts, Sesame is one of the oldest oilseed crops known to mankind. Ayurveda’s Astanga Sangraha & modern research describes that external application of ‘Tila taila’ (Sesamum indicum) is extremely nourishing and healing, especially for Vata Dosha. It nourishes the whole body, reducing signs of aging, fatigue, and dryness of the skin and hair.
Owing to its incredible benefits, here at Puraveda Organics, we have infused 100% pure cold-pressed Sesame Oil into two of our Award Winning Formulas – BioScience Peptide Complex and SunProtect SPF 30+. Here’s how Sesame Oil in these formulas will help improve and strengthen your skin’s overall health…
Improves Complexion
Sesame oil is a ‘natural cleanser’, flushing toxins from clogged pores and removing dead skin gently. This brings about improved clarity and enhancement of your natural complexion.
Along with our proprietary DevaBright formula (learn more), Sesame Oil works synergistically to fade hyperpigmentation. With a comedogenic rating of 1 Sesame Oil (Refined), also helps prevent acne, whiteheads, blackheads, and blemishes.
Strengthens Barrier
Sesame seed oil is often associated with strength and vigor. In many indigenous communities, Sesame oil has been used for centuries as a massage oil for strengthening and maintaining the beautiful complexion of newborns.
Both our formulas contain this nourishing oil as a base. The polyphenols add a protective layer and help repair damaged dermal barriers by balancing pH.
Anti-aging
Massaging Sesame oil into the skin enhances circulation, which is beneficial in two respects – getting rid of free radicals/ toxic (‘ama’) accumulation, & bringing fresh nutrients and oxygen supply for regeneration of new skin cells. Fatty Acids, Vitamins, and Antioxidants repair damaged skin cells and prevent fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
This property of Sesame Oil along with the powerful combination of Peptides, Hyaluronic Acid, CoQ10 and other botanicals in our BioScience is the most effective solution when it comes to topical anti-aging treatments. Minimizes the risk of side effects, while giving you visible results in 4 weeks or less.
Promotes Baby-soft Skin
The combination of linoleic acid, essential fatty acids, Vitamin B-complex, and the Vitamin E in sesame oil makes it the best natural moisturizer for exceptionally soft, smooth skin. A lightweight application of this oil on the skin protects the underneath layers from damage.
Enhances Sun Protection
While our PVO SunProtect SPF 30+ has Zinc Oxide which provides the highest protection against sun damage, it is also infused with Sesame Oil (with an SPF of 2) that further enhances your UV protection experience. Antioxidants prevent and neutralize the free radicals generated from UV interaction.
In fact, scientific studies reveal that Sesame oil has potential radioprotective agents that resists up to 30% (while Coconut Oil and Olive Oil does this @20%) of UV rays. It is a compound called ‘sclerojuglonic’ formed by interaction of naphthoquinone and keratin that provides this UV protection.
It should be noted that only clinically approved concentrations of any carrier/essential oil along with a combination of other potent botanicals provides the most effective benefits. Promising you the highest quality and efficacy, we use only fresh, raw, 100% cold-pressed Sesame Oil in our formulas for results in as little as 4 weeks, or less. Explore more.
