To date, well-known companies are intensively developing cosmetic products for the care of eyebrows and eyelashes. But before giving blood savings for expensive and not always natural industrial means, we will seek help from nature. According to women, almost any vegetable oil for eyelashes and eyebrows has proved to be very useful in cosmetic procedures.
Properties of oils.
At once we will warn, it is not necessary to confuse vegetable oils with ethereal! They have "common ancestors" - plants, but their chemical structures are very different. Vegetable oils consist of unsaturated fatty acids. They can be applied a lot to the skin and hair - they will soak in, soften the coarser coat. And essential oils are volatile liquid substances. At normal temperature, they evaporate, leaving no stains. In water, they do not dissolve, so essential oils are often used in aromatherapy for bathing, for foot and hand baths. Oils will slowly squeeze through the molecules of water, and evaporating, evenly saturate the room with light aromas.
To achieve the magnificence of eyelashes and eyebrows, it is better to use certain vegetable oils. They are safe. True, in the literature there are recipes for the use of essential oils. But before you buy essential oil to strengthen and grow eyelashes and eyebrows, take care of safety. Essential oil is a highly concentrated product. To effectively use a couple of drops per session. These oils in pure form for the skin are very dangerous! Especially essential oil for eyelashes, which can get into the eyes. Therefore, they are used in combination with other ingredients. It should also be taken into account that there are many fakes, obtained by chemical means, and not squeezed out of natural raw materials. They only have a smell. Chemical flavors do not possess useful properties.
