I’ve been really into using oils on my face this Winter. Seattle’s perpetual “winter mix” precipitation is absolute murder on my dry skin. Usually my hands are the only victims, but this Winter has forced me to look for some serious healing for my cheeks as well.
tarte’s Pure Maracuja Oil– a recently launched QVC exclusive–is an amazing elixir for this type of suffering. The purple glass bottle equipped with a self-measuring dropper to apply the oil to the skin. The oil feels soothing when applied, and has thus-far helped me to relieve my cheeks of their extreme dryness, and downgrade them to just “dry”. I’ll take it! A three-week consumer study shows that the oil improves the texture of the skin, helps to even skin tone and improves elasticity… among many other desirable qualities. I have my fingers crossed!
The formula is simple. It’s 100% pure, undiluted Maracuja oil. The fruit is hand-harvested by Amazonian women once a year, and the nutrient rich pulp is pressed to extract the oil. (Tell me this doesn’t sound like a story straight from a J. Peterman catalog?!?!?) Maracuja Oil is rich in the essential fatty acids that rebuild and repair skin. It also has a high Vitamin C content!
Retail price is $46 for a generously-sized 1.7 fl. oz. bottle.
