Emu oil is a natural, secret weapon for dry skin and anti-aging skin care.
Used by Australian aborgines for centuries, emu oil has beautifying and healing properties. It’s natural composition is very close to that of our own skin, so our bodies accept it as a natural addition to our skin care regimen.
Emu oil has been used to treat dry skin, wrinkles, and acne. It works, in part, by supplying the essential fatty acids (Omegas 3, 6, and 9) that our bodies require.
Emu oil is useful for skin care and skin management because its molecules are small enough to penetrate the skin’s deepest layers.
Incidentally, emu oil has also been used as a topical pain killer- you can get rid of your aspirin or ben gay, replacing either of these with emu oil.
Your baby may also benefit from emu oil, as it helps heal diaper rash and cradle cap. (Check with your child’s doctor to make sure it’s safe).
Emu oil can also reduce scarring, so it’s perfect for spot treating of any burns or scrapes you (or your little ones) might get.
If you’re looking for a natural dry skin and wrinkle reducer, which is also good for pain relief and treating conditions like eczema, be sure to add emu oil to your medicine chest. A little goes a long way, so a 1 oz. bottle should last you at least a month.
