Passionfruit for English speakers, but Maracuja for the Brazilians. This oil does a lot and was first used by indigenous Brazilians who lived in the Amazon.
There are different kinds. Well, there are two sources to obtain the oil. One source is from the flower and the other sources are from the seed. So, now let's go through the anti-s. It is anti-spasmodic, anti-inflammatory, anti-itch, anti-acne, and analgesic.
There are many claims about this oil. It is good for hair, skin, and muscles. For hair, it is good for dry, brittle hair while treating flaky scalps and encouraging hair growth. For skin, it is good for those with dry skin and oily skin really. It improves skin elasticity and the appearance of stretch marks. It's also good for aging skin by reducing hyperpigmentation and evening skintone. For muscles, it is a good (though expensive) oil for massage. It relaxes muscles and is known to calm and sedate a person. By the way, it has a natural citrus fragrance.
It naturally contains vitamins A and C, calcium, phosphorus, carotene, ascorbic acid, and potassium. Its acid profile for a typical batch is estimated to be: linoleic acid 77%, oleic acid 12%, palmitic acid 8%, stearic acid 2%, and linolenic 1%.
True Hidration uses this oil for many things because it is light, with no greasy feel, and is easily absorbed. It is used in soap, body and scalp butter, cream, conditioner, lotion, and bath fizz.
