Vegetable oils, also known as carrier oils, have long been used in skin and hair care due to their high content of fatty acids and other nutrients. They actively moisturise and nourish hair and skin, improve their elasticity and flexibility, produce a rejuvenating and revitalising effect, and have a wide range of other useful properties. Ukrainian beauty brand Mayur presents an impressive selection of carrier oils for all skin and hair types.
Mayur is a personal care brand owned and produced by the Ukrainian company Biofarma that works with the leading Indian cosmetic manufacturers, such as Marico Ltd., Zee Laboratories Ltd. and Vedicare Ayurveda Pvt Ltd. Mayur offers a variety of skin and hair care products based on natural ingredients such as herbal extracts, herbal distillates (also known as hydrolates or floral waters), essential oils, and carriers oils.
Carrier oils, also known as base oils or vegetable oils, are used to dilute essential oils before they are applied to the skin. They are so named because they carry the essential oils to the skin. Besides, each carrier oil has its own set of therapeutic properties and can be used without mixing with essential oils. Vegetable oils are generally obtained from the seeds or fruit of various plants. Some of the most popular carrier oils used for cosmetic properties include apricot kernel oil, grapeseed oil, olive oil, argan oil, macadamia oil, jojoba oil, sweet almond oil, coconut oil, cocoa butter, shea butter, and others.
Mayur offers several dozen carrier oils of the finest quality, each having its unique properties. Cosmetic oils by Mayur can be applied in their pure form, mixed with various essential oils, used in DIY skin and hair products, or added to store-bought lotions and other cosmetics. Let’s take a closer look at some of the oils offered by Mayur and their main characteristics.
One of the most popular vegetable oils used for skincare is shea butter (some oils are called butters because they are solid or semi-solid at room temperature and melt on contact with skin). Thanks to its excellent moisturising properties, it is especially great for taking care of dry skin and hair. In addition, shea butter is a rich source of nutrients. It stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis, which improves the elasticity and flexibility of skin and hair. Shea butter also creates an invisible barrier that provides protection against the sun, wind, dry air, cold temperatures, and other environmental factors.
Another butter offered by Mayur is mango seed butter, also known as mango butter, mango kernel fat, or mango oil. It excellently softens skin and hair, keeps them hydrated, and produces a visible anti-age effect. Despite its relatively thick texture, mango seed butter is good for normal and oily skin. When used as a hair care product, mango oils is great for taking care of weak and dull hair. It strengthens the hair, reduces hair loss, and stimulates its growth.
If you have very dry or overly sensitive skin, check out Mayur’s cocoa butter. Due to its high content of saturated fat, cocoa butter deeply hydrates the skin, provides it with fatty acids, vitamins and other nutrients, prevents premature wrinkles, speeds up the healing of minor skin injuries, produces a smoothing effect, relieves irritated skin. In addition, cocoa butter is believed to prevent acne scars and stretch marks.
Sweet almond oil is one of the most widely used skincare oils because it is suitable for all skin and hair types. Very light-textured, it has a moisturising, nourishing, softening, and regenerative effect. In addition, sweet almond oil helps to protect skin and hair against harmful environmental factors. When used regularly, it keeps the skin looking fresh and glowing, as well as makes the hair thicker and softer, restores its natural elasticity, flexibility, and shine.
Macadamia oil is one of the most unique carrier oils. Produced from the macadamia nut indigenous to Australia, it is used to repair and revitalise damaged hair, to moisturise, nourish and soften the skin, and to prevent premature skin ageing. Macadamia oil is close in chemical composition and texture to human sebum (skin oil), so it absorbs well, penetrates deep into the epidermis, and doesn’t leave the skin looking or feeling greasy.
Alongside these carrier oils, Mayur offers jojoba oil, wheat germ oil, grapeseed oil, sea buckthorn oil, chamomile oil, avocado oil, argan oil, coconut oil (including several kinds of infused coconut oil), burdock oil, as well as vegetable oil blends and various essential oils. All carrier oils by Mayur come in opaque dispenser bottles, which makes them very easy to use.
