🥑🥑Avocados are one of the healthiest foods (and fats) in the world, with high amounts of unsaturated, essential fatty acids. Besides eating them, their rich nutrient profile can also be used topically for the skin, hair and the whole body. There's a protein found in avocados called Sterolins which can help decrease the appearance of acne scars and dark spots on the face. Butyl Avocadate is the ester of butyl alcohol and the fatty acid derived from Avocado Oil (Persea Gratissima Oil) and also goes by the name of Avocutine. Butyl Avocadate inhibits a particular enzyme (5-alpha reductase) which plays a key part in the development of acne and seborrhoea. Butyl Avocadate has been shown to slow down sebum production, visibly tighten pores and reduce greasy shine in the facial T-zone after several weeks of usage. Butyl Avocadate has a similar effect to Retinol, but without any side effects. It can be more suitable than Retinol for people with sensitive skin and skin of color, both of whom tend to experience higher levels of skin reactions to Retinol. The Volition Detoxifying Silt Gelée Mask is a great, non-drying solution for people with oily, porous skin prone to acne and breakouts. It is a hydrating formula boosted with vegan squalane and allantoin to leave skin smooth, more even and radiant looking.
