Pink Pepper essential oil is a natural solution to many health problems. It is produced by steam distillation from the mature berries of the pepper tree (Schinus molle). The seeds are often referred to as fake pepper because they do not contain piperine, one of the most important components of black pepper, which gives it its characteristic pungent flavor. However, Pink Pepper essential oil has unique and very useful properties.
Pink pepper essential oil exhibits antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity. When used during a massage, it produces a warming effect, thus alleviating muscle and joint discomfort (caused by a medical condition or strain), and also promotes blood flow, which significantly affects proper circulation. The product maintains the natural functions of cells and improves the overall performance of the body.
It also has great cosmetic potential. It nourishes and gently cleanses the skin, calms dermatological problems, and restores color. Due to its strong warming properties, the product should be used cautiously and in moderation on the face (and other, delicate parts of the body).
The oil has a very interesting, fruity-floral, slightly woody, warm aroma. It increases alertness, stimulates and aids concentration - it will work well at work or during a long car trip. For the same reason, the oil is better not to use before bedtime. Although the extract is highly valued in medicine, it remains little known in aromatherapy. And yet it blends perfectly with most essential oils, enhancing the therapeutic and aromatic effects.
