And in fact, natural oils are not inferior, and in a sense even surpass purchased factory creams. One of the most popular facial oils is peach, which has its own distinctive qualities. Everyone knows what a peach and its stone look like. To get high-quality cold-pressed oil, the core of these very bones is squeezed by industrial presses. The result is the most healthy and natural peach oil, which is distinguished by its pleasant color and matchless aroma of bright southern fruit.
Such an unrefined product is stored for a very short time, so it can rarely be found on the shelves of ordinary shops and pharmacies. Most often, the oil is refined and refined. It turns pale yellow and smells not so intense, and the beneficial properties are slightly reduced. But then it can be stored for a long time and accordingly easier to find on sale.
