Discover Plum Oil: The Do-It-All Ingredient for Brighter, Balanced Skin

Take a quick glance at the ingredients in your current skincare lineup. Your products are probably bursting with vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and squalane oil (to name a few).

These days, skincare lines rely on a combination of potent ingredients to combat aging, quench dryness, brighten skin, and protect against free radicals.

Ahem, plum oil can do all of that and then some.

However, it’s likely that plum oil hasn’t found its way onto your beauty shelf. Let’s fix that.

It’s time to scoot the other bottles and jars out of the way to make room for an unsung, fruit-based ingredient with a cornucopia of benefits. Actually, the multitasking nature of plum oil might make you clear your shelf completely – it could be everything you need.

Before we get into the benefits of this do-it-all oil, let’s talk about plums. This often forgotten source of fiber is packed with antioxidants and vitamins A, C, and E.

Plum oil is extracted from the pits and kernels of the plum, but this isn’t a recent discovery. Thousands of years ago, plum extracts were used in traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese medicine.

The non-comedogenic oil is known for helping to regulate sebum production. Plus, it’s rich in vitamin E to soothe and provide anti-inflammatory relief for reactive skin.

It beats traditional skin hydrators, namely squalane, as it quenches skin while also imparting antioxidants that promote cellular renewal. Not to shade squalane, but its purely emollient benefit isn’t as multitasking. But wait, there’s more.

Plum oil is packed with omega 6 & 9 fatty acids that quickly penetrate the skin barrier to keep it soft while maintaining youthful plumpness and elasticity. It also contains vitamin C to target discoloration and dark spots for brighter, more glowing skin.

Great for all skin types ranging from sensitive to dry to acne-prone, it’s safe to say that plum oil is pretty powerful. If you’d like to try it in your anti-aging skincare regimen, we recommend giving Good Molecules 1% Retinol Night Oil a go.

Formulated with 1% potent retinol in a base of nourishing plum oil, the formula works to improve fine lines, wrinkles, unevenness, and dryness while you rest. You’ll think it’s a dream, but plum oil’s laundry list of benefits are ready to make your best skin a reality.
