Peach oil in tandem with clay of any color will effectively cleanse the skin without exposing it to overdrying, as is usually the case after clay masks. 1 tbsp. l mix clay with chamomile broth, thermal or boiled water to a thin consistency in a non-metallic dish, add 7 drops of peach oil, optionally 3 drops of orange or grapefruit oil. The composition is applied to the skin, slightly damp after washing, and lasts 15 minutes. The mask should not dry completely, but some areas can dry out, there is nothing to worry about. It is washed off with a sponge to wash with warm water, after which the face must be rinsed with cool and apply either a moisturizer or a little of the same oil to moisturize.

Due to its lightness and non-comedogenicity, it does not clog pores, but, like all other base oils, brightens black spots and cleans pores from sebaceous gland products.

After that, you can wash yourself in the usual way.

Reviews
From the reviews of real customers, it becomes clear that peach oils from different manufacturers have approximately the same composition and often really do not need to be overcharged. Funds of different price categories have the same effect. The smell of oil is very unobtrusive, something nutty, quickly absorbed, does not leave greasy marks on the skin. However, very deep pores can clog. For hair, girls often use it, simply applying it to wet hair before washing, or after washing it off. Curls become straight, shiny, the volume is not lost, split ends as if soldered.
After applying masks, nails grow faster, become stronger. An allergy to it rarely appears, but with intolerance to peach fruits, oil is best avoided. Peach oil can be a real salvation for dehydrated, dry skin of the face, body, as well as for hair and lips. This is a truly universal product with a rich natural composition, which is very often used in cosmetology.
