blue lotus oil benefits for skin

Just like the rest of our body, our skin thrives on clean ingredients. Our bodies absorb all ingredients in fresh plant-based foods, and our skin is no exception. 

Blue Lotus is a highly concentrated bioactive botanical, revered by alchemists since 3000BC for its healing and anti-ageing properties.  These 3 potent flavonoids in blue lotus oil are what makes it such a powerful skincare ingredient.

1. Quercetin: repairs damaged or irritated skin caused by make up and chemical-based skincare products and other synthetics. It stimulates collagen production, which helps to keep the skin firm and smooth.

2. Kaempferol was found throughout research to have an anti-inflammatory effect.

3. Myricetin in blue lotus can slow the collagen degradation, preserving the skin’s plumpness and firmness.

The blue lotus oil benefits are extensive. The active compounds in blue lotus oil are apomorphine and nuciferine. These two alkaloids are responsible for the plant’s anxiety-relieving effects. Apomorphine is a compound that acts as a dopamine agonist, meaning it can produce feelings of happiness and calm. Nuciferine relaxes muscle cells and prevents muscle contractions. It also has a calming effect.
