Aromatherapy Body Massage Oil Plum Blossom Essential Oil

Plum oil is a hydrator and anti-inflammatory ingredient that brightens and plumps skin, protects against radical damage and oxidative stress, and aids in cellular repair, sebum production, and skin turnover. Plum oil is marketed on its own as an elixir, but is also found as an ingredient in some moisturizers and serums.

Plum oil has a host of skin benefits for such a lightweight oil, which make it a nutrient-rich daily treatment that can be used beneath heavier creams or serums. Its heritage comes from Asian cultures, most notably the south mainland of China, where the plum plant originated. Extracts of the plum plant, or prunus mume, have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for more than 2000 years.
