Tales from Nature.

Originally, carrots were not orange. Centuries ago, wild varieties were mainly purple, white or yellow. It was not until the 17th century that Dutch growers, in homage to the d'Orange dynasty, selected and popularized the orange variety we know today.

In nature, the carrot acts as a veritable "treasure chest": its root burrows into the soil to absorb valuable nutrients, turning them into high concentrations of beta-carotene. This substance is not just a pigment, but a form of vital energy that the plant stores to protect itself and thrive. In ancient times, the carrot was considered a symbol of health and vitality, often used in infusions and natural remedies to brighten the complexion and regenerate tissues.

Skin Benefits

Carrot Oil is an oily extract usually obtained by maceration, very rich in vitamins A and E and carotenoids. That's why it is a key ingredient in cutting-edge sun cosmetics:

• Tanning Accelerator: Thanks to beta-carotene, it stimulates melanin production, helping the skin achieve a golden, intense and even complexion in less time.

• Antioxidant Action: Effectively counteracts free radicals generated by UV rays, protecting cells from premature aging and photo-aging damage.

• Elasticizing and Repairing: Deeply nourishes dry or sun-stressed skin, maintaining the integrity of the hydrolipid barrier.

In dry oils sun products, Carrot Oil expresses its full potential. This particular formulation allows the active ingredient to penetrate quickly without leaving an uncomfortable "greasy" feeling. The dry oil creates a protective, silky veil that:

1. Enhancesradiance: Gives an immediate "glow" effect that enhances the muscles and texture of the skin.

2. Moisturizes without weighing down: Perfect for those who want protection and nourishment even at the beach, preventing sand or dust from adhering to the skin.

3. Prolongs color: Consistent use of dry carrot-based oils helps keep skin soft, preventing flaking and making the tan last much longer.
