Plum oil

What are the benefits of Typology's plum oil?

Prune oil can be used undiluted to protect the skin from oxidation and maintain its hydration. It is particularly rich in tocopherol (vitamin E) and also contains omega 6, omega 9, and palmitic acid. Derived from a cold pressing process of plum kernels grown and harvested in the South-West of France, it also imparts a gentle almond or even frangipane scent to the skin. It is certified organic and 100% naturally sourced. It can be applied both in the evening and in the morning, on clean and dry skin. It is then simply massaged in with upward circular movements across the entire face, not forgetting the neck, to ensure its complete absorption.
