The qualities that make Almond oil so awesome is that it has vitamin E, which is awesome for skin and hair, along with vitamins A and D. It also has a great amount of oleic and linoleic acids. Because the oil has such a high concentration in vitamins and acids it is mostly used for skin care, but can also be used as a medicinal for skin ailments.

2. Anti-inflammation
3. Emollient Properties
4. Removes Dark Circles
5. Reduces wrinkles
6. Protects you from the sun

Moisturization.
When applying almond oil to your skin while it is damp, the almonds have a way to trap the moisture inside your skin keeping it moisturized for an extensive amount of time. Because it is so lubricating many companies use it in there skin products, which keeps their customers very happy, and willing to return.

Anti-inflammation.
After many studies, Almond oil has been proved to have a calming effect to people that may have a skin inflammation, due to allergies or other causes.  It has also been proven to treat small wounds, chapped skin, like lips, heels or elbows as well as treat skin infections.

Emollient Properties.
Emollient refers to the ability of the Almond oil to get absorbed into the skin or hair. It can be used as a massage oil, since it is odorless and isn't greasy like other oils. It also helps in restoring a healthy PH, which cause the skin to emit a healthy glow, with the preserved moisture.

Removal of Dark Circles.
Almond oil has a natural ability to lighten the skin. This quality makes it perfect for the removal of dark areas on the skin, like under the eyes.

Reduction of Wrinkles.
Vitamins, like vitamin E, helps reduce wrinkles in the skin by keeping the skin protected and moisturized. It is best to apply the oil when skin is still damp, like right after you take a shower and in the evening before you go to sleep.

Sun Protection.
Everyday, no matter if we go to the beach or not our skin is exposed to the sun and it's damaging rays. This exposure causes skin wrinkles, aging, and skin cancer. Fortunately, by using almond oil on a regular basis, it can help reduce  and reverse the effects of this damage.

Almond Oil for the Hair:

One of the most beneficial qualities almond oil has for hair is sealant and protection. Almond oil has the natural ability to seal in moisture to the hair shaft, keeping it moisturized for an extended amount of time.

Saturated fats as well as mono saturated fats also give almond oil the ability to penetrate the hair shaft, moisturizing it from the inside out.

In addition to moisturizing the hair almond oil adds shine and elasticity to the hair, keeping strong while reducing breakage. Add to hair that is weak and dry, the oil will restore moisture and trap it inside the shaft.

There is nothing better than an all natural hair moisturizer, make sure you read the labels to all your hair products. Only get the pure and organic, no  chemicals for your beautifully natural hair!

Purely Beautiful Hair Care

Going natural was one one the most important decisions of my life. I loved the fact that I can wear my hair in so many different styles and be free from product chemicals.

Or so I thought.

There are so many products on the market, that claim to be natural, they claim to be organic, they make soooo many claims you would think that it would be easy to find something that would work for my hair.

I couldn't be more wrong.

Some products would weigh heavily on my hair and leave a weird residue, others would literally leave my hair looking and feeling "crispy". Other products say they are organic and all natural but when reading the ingredients they are everything but! After several months of trial and error I started making my own products.

I started using Shea Butter, for literally everything, this stuff works wonders on your skin and hair. I completely fell in love. Shea Butter is very thick and hard to spread on the hair, so I made a butter that would be easy to apply and use ingredients that would help the hair grow and reduce breakage all while keeping the scalp beautifully moisturized. The formula makes the hair soft and movable, (yes your hair will be blowing in the wind after that awesome twist out).

Being a person that cares about the welfare of our earth and the treatment of animals, I also wanted to make sure I knew where all the ingredients came from and I wanted to control the purity and freshness of every ingredient.

Therefore, Purely Beautiful was born.
This formula is creamy and light, but very moisturizing!

Lavender has a beautiful scent and promotes hair growth.
