Inca Inchi oil - cold-pressed, unrefined.
What is this?
With age, our skin suffers from the signs of passing time, it loses vitality, the first wrinkles appear. Nature comes to the rescue. To make the fight even, we imported Inca Ichi oil from Peru. An ally in the fight against flabby, dry skin.
The treasure of the Incas in the fight against regeneration and the passage of time.
This oil is obtained from the fruits of the ancient Peruvian plant Inca Inchi, also called Sacha Inchi. The Incas knew its beneficial properties as early as 3,000 years ago. The fruits of this tree have an unusual star shape.
Composition and Properties:
Inca Inchi oil has only recently been available in Poland, but it is increasingly appreciated due to its effects. It has a very high content of unsaturated fatty acids (up to 92% of the total weight of the oil - which makes it a record holder among all natural vegetable oils). Its composition also includes Vitamin E and A. Inca Inchi oil contains a whole range of fatty acids - Omega-3 alpha-linolenic (up to 54%) and Omega-6 linoleic (33%) and proteins. Thanks to the content of these beneficial ingredients, its use is very wide. This oil is the only surface-active oil known so far. It has the ability to rebuild collagen. The effect of smoothing and making the skin more elastic, and thus a clear reduction of wrinkles, can be seen already in the second week of use. The oil soothes irritations and redness. If the skin is very dry due to the wrong selection of cosmetics and the first wrinkles appear on it, Inca Inchi oil will definitely deal with it.
Inca Inchi oil is hard to find in skin care cosmetics due to its low popularity and relatively high price. We tried to use Inca Inchi oil in our series for pregnant women, raspberry massage oil, raspberry body mousse, hair oil mask and even a moisturizing face scrub.

The sacha inchi plant is interesting, and its fruits are exceptionally characteristic. It is a climber reaching a height of up to 2 m. Partially woody. It grows in the Peruvian Amazon in various parts of the jungle. The vine has green leaves and tiny white flowers that produce star-shaped fruit of light green color. As the fruits ripen, they turn brown, and seeds are formed inside them, separated from each other by compartments.
