Neem Oil

The Introduction of Neem Oil

Neem oil is extracted from the neem tree. It is very beneficial for both skin and hair health. It is used as a medicine for some skin diseases. Antiseptic properties of neem add immense value to various products such as medicines and beauty and cosmetic products. It is also used in pesticides and as a natural insect repellent. Neem oil has countless benefits.

From the leaves to the bark, the neem tree makes for a multi-purpose pharmacy, and has even earned the moniker of ‘nature’s drugstore’. A crucial part of many Ayurvedic medicines, this pantry staple also comes with a host of skincare benefits ranging from anti-acne to addressing premature ageing concerns.

The Benefits of Neem Oil

Reduce wrinkles

As the skin ages, the production of collagen starts decreasing, which in turn leads to the appearance of wrinkles. Neem comes loaded with Vitamin C, which helps boost the natural production of collagen and flood the skin with antioxidants to smooth fine lines.

Help hair growth

Neem can also be used as an effective haircare ingredient, owing to its anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Neem oil can work as an anti-inflammatory and promote circulation, therefore improving hair growth. Furthermore, since women suffering from hair loss usually have low antioxidant levels, neem oil can be an antidote.

Skin care

Neem is able to balance oil production, heal wounds, stimulate collagen formation, reduce post-acne scars and minimise skin inflammation. It works as a natural alternative to heal the skin tissue from within and simultaneously reduces hyperpigmentation and scars. In addition to reducing marks left behind from the ghosts of breakouts past, neem also works on actively treating pimples with its antiseptic and antibacterial properties, thus earning a regular spot in anti-acne cleansers, creams and treatments.

For pets

Neem oil is used in many pet care products to prevent pets from dangerous skin diseases. It can be sprayed in the areas where pets spend maximum time to prevent them from contracting infections and skin problems.

Dental problem

Neem oil is an extremely effective oral remedy for all dental problems. Be it bleeding gums, toothache, or foul breath, the antiseptic properties of neem are proven to keep gums and teeth healthy. Many dental care products include neem oil as a major ingredient for this same purpose.

The Uses of Neem Oil

Moisturizing

Use it as you would any serum, placing just a few drops in your hands and patting it onto the skin, or giving the scalp a light mist. Remember to use this oil-serum as a last step in your topical skin care routine. Oils like those listed above have an occlusive function, which means they lock moisture into the skin and act as a barrier.

Skin care

Neem Oil can be applied to the skin as a toner that restores moisture to the face while eliminating pathogens beneath the skin’s surface to leave skin looking and feeling healthier and younger. To condition dry skin, Neem Carrier Oil can be blended with Coconut Oil before being applied. Additionally, a few drops of Lemon or Lavender Essential Oil can be added to this blend for a more pleasant scent. To control acne, Neem Carrier Oil can be mixed with Olive Oil before it is applied to the face and left on for one hour.

Hair care

You can look for neem seed oil and neem extracts in natural hair care products, or you can add a few drops to shampoos, conditioners and hair masks to boost their benefits.

Reduce acne

It prevents future breakouts by eliminating acne-causing bacteria, purging impurities, tightening the pores, and evening out skin tone. By softening the skin to make it supple, it facilitates the healing of scars and reduces their look and feel.

Insect repellant

Used medicinally, Neem Oil can soothe areas of skin affected by cuts, wounds, and mosquito bites by mixing it with Vaseline or with another carrier oil before applying it. This method makes an effective insect repellant as well.

Cautions

With any botanical product, it’s always best to patch-test the ingredient. Choose a spot on your forearm and apply the product there rather than straight on the face. If that patch becomes red, itchy, or inflamed within 24 hours, then you might have a sensitivity to neem oil and thus shouldn’t continue use. As always, it’s best to consult a dermatologist before committing to a new ingredient. Given your unique skin type, goals, and concerns, your dermatologist may give you the green light or suggest you try something else.
