Ant Oil 100 ml - Origin

Still relatively unknown in Europe, but widely used in the countries of the Maghreb and the Middle East, and more particularly in Turkey, ant oil is proving to be a natural cosmetic with very interesting virtues for the human body. Renowned and used for centuries by oriental women, the latter used, already at that time, the eggs of ants collected in the anthills, like a depilatory cream that they applied directly to the skin where they wanted the hairs not to grow. more. It is also reported that they used to apply this oil on the skin of their babies so that they would grow hairless. We can therefore understand by this that they already knew perfectly the benefits that ant eggs had on the human body. Indeed, the eggs of this small insect of the family Formicidae (formicidae), contain a natural component called formic acid which acts on the hair cycle by slowing the regrowth of hair after depilation. In low concentration, it helps to fight against too much hair. It is one of the main ingredients in the composition of ant oil, and it is used in beauty treatments in particular for its anti-hair regrowth action. Nowadays, laboratories have succeeded in synthesizing formic acid in the form of an active ingredient, and it is therefore no longer necessary to collect ant eggs to make this oil, which harmed their environment considerably. However, this somewhat “distorts” the product. This is why Origin Ant Oil does not contain formic acid, as this remains an unnatural chemical component. It is therefore composed of a cocktail of 100% natural vegetable oils from organic farming, which have properties identical to those of formic acid, namely the slowing down of hair growth. These oils include tiger nut oil, pumpkin seed oil, and clary sage essential oil. The name ant oil has been attributed to it only because it has the same benefits. This oil is produced naturally, that is to say without parabens or other chemicals and it does not contain any additives. It therefore poses no danger to the skin.
