You eat the best so why not wear the best? Today’s spotlight ingredient is Avocado Oil.

• It contains Vitamins A, E & D (It is one of the top five foods highest in Vitamin E)

• It has anti-aging properties.

• Applying it will keep your skin supple

• Applying it helps reduce wrinkles

• Great for relieving an itchy scalp

• Use it to help improve hair growth

• Using avocado oil as a moisturizer gives your skin a boost, helps replenish and makes stronger cells within the body. The Vitamin E, lecithin and potassium are readily absorbed into the skin.

• It’s a thicker oil and won’t absorb as quickly as other oils so if you suffer from eczema or extreme dryness, try a thin layer on your skin as it will help prevent itchiness.

• Can be used on burns, cuts or scrapes.  Your skin will heal faster and it may prevent scarring.
