That's right kids, after argan oil and coconut oil have taken the beauty industry by storm, avocado oil is about to become the "It" ingredient of the moment. And while you can expect to see it pop up in more and more products, the concept of using it on skin and hair is nothing new. In ancient times, Aztecs used avocado oil as a soothing moisturizer to protect their skin from punishing environmental conditions like intense sun and brutal wind.
没错,在摩洛哥坚果油和椰子油席卷美容业之后,现在美容业的时尚新宠就是牛油果油。虽然你希望牛油果油出现在越来越多产品中,但是在皮肤和头发上涂抹牛油果油并不是一件新鲜事儿。古时候,阿兹特克人就将牛油果油当作舒缓保湿霜使用,以保护皮肤不受烈日和寒风等恶劣环境的侵袭。
So, are you ready to get in on this wonder fruit (beyond slathering it on toast, that is)? Here are four ways you can use avocado oil to look and feel amazing from hair to heels.
所以,准备好了解这一神奇之果了吗(除了把它涂抹在面包上)?下列四种使用牛油果油的方法,能让你从头到脚焕然一新。
1. As makeup remover: "Avocado oil is a gentle way to remove makeup," says Dr. Rossi. "The soluble lipids dissolve dirt and other oils without stripping." Pour a bit of avocado oil (like Now Avocado Oil) onto a cotton pad and swipe it over your face. Follow with your favorite cleanser.
1. 用于卸妆:“用牛油果油卸妆是比较舒缓的一种方式,”罗西博士说道。“这种可溶性溶液能有效的清洁肌肤,而且用完不会觉得紧绷。”在化妆棉上倒一点牛油果油(比如Now Avocado Oil这一品牌),然后轻轻擦拭脸部。接下来就可以用你最爱的清洁产品了。
2. As a hair hydrator: After a season spent at the pool, the beach, or on a rooftop, your hair could probably use a little rehab. Pamper it in the shower with moisturizing formulas like Garnier Whole Blends Nourishing Shampoo and Conditioner with Avocado and Shea Butter Extracts. For a more intense hit of hydration, try Garnier Whole Blends Nourishing Mask with Avocado Oil and Shea Butter Extracts. This trio gives thirsty strands an instant boost and brings back bounce.
2. 用作头发保湿精华:这个夏天,你们呆过游泳池、去过沙滩、爬过屋顶,你们的头发可能需要做点修复了。先用淋浴打湿头发,然后在头发上先后抹上牛油果和牛油树脂提取物保湿卡尼尔全混合滋养洗发水和护发素。想要更加保湿,那就试试牛油果和牛油树脂提取物卡尼尔全混合滋养发膜吧。这三重护养能让你干燥的头发立马变得弹性有光泽。
3. As a foot softener: To prep your heels for fall's big mule trend, try this overnight treatment: Slough your feet in the shower with a pumice stone. When you get out, apply a rich cream like Captain Blankenship Avocado & Peppermint Hand, Cuticle & Foot Balm while your skin is still damp. Slip on a pair of socks and leave them on while you sleep. In the morning, wave those cracks goodbye.
3. 用于使脚柔软:为了让你的脚能够穿上今秋流行的Mule女鞋,那就试试这一睡眠治疗吧:淋浴时用磨脚石磨掉脚上的死皮。淋浴完出来后,趁着脚还没干,抹上一层厚厚的Captain Blankenship牌牛油果薄荷手霜和脚霜。然后穿上袜子睡一觉。早上醒来就可以跟脚后跟裂痕说拜拜!
4. As an eye brightener: Treat the sensitive skin under your eyes with a hydrating moisturizer like Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado. Chockful of natural fats, avocado oil is said to be the most moisturizing of any fruit oil.
4. 用作眼部光亮焕颜:用保湿的科颜氏牛油果眼霜涂抹眼部下方的敏感肌肤。牛油果油富含天然脂肪,被称作最保湿的水果油。
