Prepare your anti-aging serum
In our expert advice, scientific section, we tell you about Evening Primrose Vegetable Oil which seems to be a panacea for preventing aging.
We recommend evening primrose (oenothera biennis) as an anti-aging serum for mature skin that lives in the city and is particularly sensitive to external aggressions.
Evening primrose is a vegetable oil very rich in linoleic essential fatty acid, which makes it a stimulating oil for skin cell renewal. It is ideal for mature skin which always tends to dry out and feel tight.
Indeed, this oil is particularly thick and wonderfully protects the most devitalized skin.
To facilitate application, we advise you to mix this oil with a lighter oil, such as sesame oil ( sesamum indicum ) because it is a valuable adjuvant to protect against UV rays. And we know how much aging is due to exposure to the sun's rays!
Store your serum in a small amber glass bottle to protect it from light.
Our anti-aging serum recipe
- 5 ml evening primrose
- 10 ml of sesame
- 6 drops of neroli (citrus aurantium - flowers ) which delicately perfumes and soothes dehydrated skin.
The serum is used as a gentle massage on the face and neck, morning and evening, before your usual day cream or alone. You sometimes have to wait one or two minutes before applying the next treatment because oily serums certainly penetrate very well but not instantly.
