Avocado oil is an excellent cosmetic product for dry skin. It is easily absorbed by skin and hair where it penetrates the tissues. The oil is known to soften and intensively moisturise the skin which are ideal properties for skin that lacks moisture as well as mature skin types. Furthermore, avocado oil alleviates itchiness and eczema while also promoting hair growth. The sterol-rich oil reduces the appearance of pigmentation spots, sun damage and scars. Skin is left feeling wonderfully soft and moisturised. The skin's own collagen level is increased that in turn reduces skin aging.
