Broccoli hair mask. How useful is broccoli oil for hair: all about effectiveness and application. Why is broccoli good for hair?

Good afternoon, my dear friends and readers! ღღღ

Probably, there is not a single person left on the Aircommend website who has not heard about the miraculous properties of broccoli oil - natural silicone , as everyone likes to call it. I will tell and show you the effect of broccoli oil not only on the hair, but also on the skin of the face . ABOUT latest information Unfortunately, I didn't see it in this thread.

Where could I buy: on Aroma-Zone (French online store of natural cosmetics, components for soap and cream making). But delivery there is very expensive, at least to me in Kazakhstan. That's why I personally buy products from this wonderful site. in a joint venture with Aroma-Zone in Kazakhstan (if interesting, I will give a link to the VKontakte group). It turns out much more profitable, since the order from a certain amount sent free of charge. You can also look at other IMs in your country that usually resell Aroma-Zone products.

Price: depends on volume. Broccoli oil is sold in two volumes - 10 ml. costs 1.50 euros , but for 30 ml. will have to pay for 4.50€. Everything prices are inclusive of VAT, but again I repeat that I indicate prices with VAT (VAT), which apply only to residents of EU countries, and for you and me on the site you can calculate the cost without VAT by entering your country in the appropriate box.

Package: I have 30 ml. bottle and he must say quite comfortable.

This is, firstly, the correct bottle is made of dark glass (!), not plastic , like many other oils from Aroma-Zone.

What is very important to me the bottle has a dropper.

How I miss such a simple dropper from other bottles from this site!

The bottle had control of the first opening.

I like the design of the bottle. Information on a minimum, but the most necessary is. There is a composition, expiration date, batch number, but the place of growth and from which part of the plant the oil was obtained, like other oils, is not indicated. Although it is no brainer that broccoli oil is obtained from seeds.

Composition: 100% pure broccoli oil first cold pressed

100% Brassica oleracea italica oil

The composition of the oil from the Aroma-Zone website. Translation made by Google.

Composition of fatty acids - Gas phase chromatography:
Irreplaceable fatty acid polyunsaturated (PUFA or AGE) or vitamin F: linoleic acid (omega-6) (11.08%), linolenic acid (11.79%), éicosenoïque acids (4.05%)
Monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) : erucic acid (45.92%), oleic acid (omega-9) (8.74%)
Saturated Fatty Acids (AGS): Palmitic Acid (3.31%)

Best before date: listed on the bottle and website. There are also codes on the bottles, and how to decipher them is indicated on the site itself. So, in these codes, the dates of manufacture and the expiration date are also encrypted.

Tek stura, smell, taste: by consistency it yellow oil.

It has bright cabbage smell.

This odor can be masked by the use of essential oils and disappears fairly quickly after application.

Which is absolutely accurate information and verified from our own experience.

And immediately ABOUT MY INITIAL DATA.

About my skin: problematic, sensitive, oily , but there are also peelings, with enlarged pores, black dots, permanent rashes, age spots and rosacea.

About my hair: mixed type - oily roots, dry ends, hair thin, curly, tinted with henna.

From the manufacturer: translated by google.

Vegetable oil Broccoli is a true source of natural shine And softness for your hair.
His action comparable to silicones and gives the hair softness And shine without weighing them down.
His smoothing effect allows you to control small curls and curls. Broccoli vegetable oil facilitates combing with a brush.
it's the same excellent source of nutrients for hair and skin.

My impressions:

If in all previous reviews of oils I wrote "BEFORE USING THE OIL, IT IS MANDATORY TO DO A SENSITIVITY TEST!", then here I don’t even know if it makes sense to write like this, because This oil is intended for dry and irritated skin.

In general, I ordered this oil, so to speak, "to the heap." Well, like "where everything is, there I am." After all The reviews for this oil are fantastic. Planned to use for hair as a "natural silicone". Although my hair, to be honest, loves ordinary silicones. And at first this oil lay idle, because skepticism about this oil did not subside in my soul. Then I started using broccoli face oil

I use it in its purest form. , that is, I do not make oil blends of mixtures.

I would like to point out right away that broccoli oil - very light , I can compare it in lightness with papaya oil. Therefore, with my oily skin, it went with a bang! It has an excellent absorbent effect and does not leave a feeling of the presence of a film on the face after application. The main thing is to apply it correctly! BUT I apply oils EXCLUSIVELY ON WET SKIN! Or immediately after washing or by blotting your face with a towel, then I spray thermal water or hydrolat on my face, and then oil. With this application, the oil, firstly, easy to distribute , and secondly, absolutely does not overload the already oily skin.

Concerning effects of this oil on problem skin , then it does not aggravate her condition at all. Does not clog pores, does not provoke inflammation. But it doesn't cure breakouts either. But it reduces the activity of the sebaceous glands.

In addition, it perfectly nourishes the skin.

Here's what I found about broccoli oil...

The use of this tool is also possible for the skin on the face of a sensitive type. This is due to the high concentration of vitamin E and fatty acids in broccoli oil. With it, you can achieve an amazing effect for the face.
Softening and deep moisturizing of the skin surface.
Elimination of redness and irritation.
Elimination of peeling and cracking of the skin.
Smoothing out small wrinkles that lie in the area around the eyes.

I just have sensitive skin. Here elimination of redness and irritation , By the way, didn't notice at all. Concerning smoothing wrinkles in the eye area , then with good care I have them and so imperceptibly. Think, broccoli oil also contributes to this.

Besides , this oil is recommended for use in rosacea.Even the bottle says "strengthens capillaries". So far, I don’t see any obvious progress, I don’t use it regularly, but rather from time to time. Perhaps otherwise there would be a noticeable result.

This is what my skin looks like with broccoli oil.

Now my skin is not in the best condition, but still better than when I did not use oils at all.

In general, I believe that 30+ oils in skin care are a must! And oily skin is no exception! However, this is just my humble opinion.)

To enhance the effect of using broccoli oil, you can make an oil mixture with fats that have a transport function. These products include shea or jojoba butter, cocoa, coconut and macadamia nuts. By applying these oils, you can also massage the skin on your face every evening.

So, putting aside all your skepticism, I decided to try broccoli hair oil as a leave-in. When applied receded from the roots and applied only to the length. And of course, on still wet hair!

In the process of applying, I still could not believe in the miraculous outcome of this case. I did not believe until the last in the promised effect, but it turns out it is.

Let's Let's compare the effect of broccoli oil and the well-known silicone leave-in. I have the most common from Avon. But in the photo with Avon leave-in, the hair is dried with a hairdryer, and with broccoli oil in a natural way, so the hair is not so smooth.

Here's what I found about broccoli hair oil...

This product contains a large amount of fatty acids, which include two fairly rare species, eicosenoic and erucic acid. The use of these acids together with carotenoids and vitamin complexes, which are also part of the oil, has an amazing effect on the hair.
Bulb strengthening.
Eliminate static electricity from hair.
Facilitates styling and combing.
The effect is similar to the effect of silicone, but without weighing down the hair.
Fat control.
Gives smoothness, elasticity and shine.

From all this I can say that hair is combed and styled as easily as after silicone products. Hair is really smooth, shiny, elastic. Everything is true here.

But everything else regarding the strengthening of the bulbs and the control of fat content , then I can not say anything, because I did not use this oil in masks.

True oil keeps the tips in decent shape.

Summing up, I will say that broccoli oil is really worth a try! It is universal - suitable for both face and hair. I think everyone will find his most effective use for it. That's why I recommend!

Not necessarily this brand of oil, but just I trust this brand 100% and I can confidently say that their oils highest quality , and at affordable prices, even with the current exchange rate.

Thank you for your attention to my review! ツ
