Avocado, an active ingredient with exceptional properties

The avocado tree is a fruit tree native to Mexico, its fruit, the avocado, is consumed today as a food and in cosmetics. 

Very good for the health, the avocado is full of nutritional qualities, for example it regulates the glycemia so it is a precious ally against diabetes. It is also able to increase good cholesterol and decrease bad cholesterol. 

At Astrali, we use the seed of the avocado to extract its wonderful oil. 

Avocado oil is a very nourishing and moisturizing active ingredient, making it the best friend of dry skin and hair. It is also recognised as a powerful anti-ageing ingredient as it stimulates the production of collagen which delays the appearance of wrinkles and the marks of time. Avocado oil is also loved for its emollient and anti-oxidant properties.

Light and not very dense, it mixes very well with other active ingredients and penetrates easily into the skin without forming a greasy film, which is why it is so appreciated in cosmetics. 

We find this active ingredient in our Comfort Cream with its nourishing and regenerating properties for skin with a tendency to dryness and lack of moisture.

The Anti-Ageing Cream of the mature line also contains this super ingredient, it will firm your face and slow down the appearance of the signs of natural ageing of the skin.
