Your skin is a window into the health of your entire body. Healthy skin indicates a healthy body. Unhealthy, prematurely wrinkled, or rash covered skin might signal an underlying factor such as kidney infection or an allergic reaction to food. Taking care of your body with diet and exercise will help your skin to look vibrant and healthy. Alternatively, taking care of your skin from the outside in, will help the health of your entire body. Since your skin absorbs what you put in it, being the largest organ in your body, you can either give nutrients to your skin, that absorb into your body, or you can put harmful chemicals on your skin, which can stress out your liver, kidneys and endocrine system. This is why at SOCO Botanicals we make nutrient-rich skin care that is 100% nontoxic, even our preservatives.

What is Pomegranate?

Pomegranate grows as a shrub with flowers and fruit which all have significant health benefits. Pomegranate originated from the Middle East before being exported to other parts of the world. Pomegranate is high in nutrition, both as a food and as a topical skincare application.

Pomegranate Benefits for Skin

Pomegranate oil is one of the most important ingredients in skincare. Pomegranate contains high amounts of ellagic acid which in clinical studies has shown to reduce the incidence of skin cancer and sunspots. Pomegranate oil is helpful in reducing signs of premature aging and wrinkles, helping your skin to look younger. Applying pomegranate oil on your skin also keeps you protected from unhealthy UV rays that cause skin cancer and other skin damage.

Anti-aging and Cell Regeneration

Pomegranates are rich in Vitamin C, which is used by the skin for regenerating the cells. Using pomegranate oil on your skin helps stimulate the healing of damaged skin, and reducing skin spots caused by injury and age. Pomegranates also help the dermal cells stay hydrated and supple, giving your skin a fuller look.

This Face Oil Treats Acne and Breakouts

Anti-inflammatory pomegranate helps to reduce inflammation in your skin affected by acne and breakouts and neutralizes them. Furthermore, antioxidants present in pomegranates fight the free radicals in the cell, which cause damage.

Pomegranate Protects from Sun Damage

Studies show that pomegranates have high amounts of ellagic acid which can help to reverse sun damage. This means if you happen to get a sunburn, applying pomegranate oil over the burn will help in healing the damage.

How to Apply

You can buy pomegranate oil at your local wellness shop, health food store or you can get our anti-aging elixir that contains pomegranate oil plus over 20 other super concentrated skin-healing oils. To apply, just put a couple of drops on the tips of your fingers and gently massage into skin. Pomegranate oil is best when mixed with thinner oils like avocado or jojoba, since it has a very thick consistency, so straight pomegranate is not recommended. Our SOCO Symphony Elixir face oil is the perfect pomegranate blend for both day and night.
