Do you believe in magic?
We’re told constantly that there is no magic fix-it-all out there. OK, fixing everything is a little pretentious, unless we’re discussing duct tape.
But what if we told you that there is a cosmetic skin oil out there that has powerful healing and anti-inflammatory effects useful to help in alleviating all sorts of skin concerns?
It’s benign enough to be used alone or in combination with conventional treatments.
It’s versatility allows it to be applied as a full strength spot treatment, or blended with your skin care and cosmetics to allow for full-coverage.
This amazing oil can be used to soothe psoriasis, acne, irritated and inflamed skin, bug bites, pain, dry skin, and so much more!
No, you’re not in the Enchanted Forest.
This didn’t come from Glinda the Good Witch.
It wasn’t crafted with pixie dust.
DELTA-5 oil by SciaEssentials is almost too good to be true. Like it’s magic.
What is DELTA-5 Oil?
Launched in March 2018 after decades of painstaking scientific research, DELTA-5 has the ability to both heal and protect. This cosmetic and health breakthrough is a topical oil containing sciadonic acid (SA), a powerfully effective fatty acid that can uniquely reduce inflammation.
Developed from the mountain cypress conifer seed, it breaks the inflammation cycle by interfering early in the biochemical process. DELTA-5 oil has been processed into the highest level of SA commercially available, which is then formulated into a high-grade stable cosmetic oil. It is natural and vegan, containing no parabens, petrolatum, sulfates, or synthetic fragrances.
It can be used in conjunction, or mixed with other skin care and cosmetics products like sunscreen, moisturizer, or shampoo. In fact, the more creative you are with its use, the more you should see results that make you and your skin happy.
It also has the ability to improve the skin’s barrier functions, keeping bacteria and other irritants from penetrating the skin and causing even more complications. Its bioactive mechanism uniquely delivers more than just skin barrier protection. It provides relief from itchy, irritated, red, and inflamed skin.
DELTA-5 can even be used on pets’ skin concerns, too.
How Does DELTA-5 Work?
DELTA-5, named so for the specific formulation of sciadonic acid (Delta-5-sciadonic acid), is created from only two ingredients: mountain cypress seed oil and tocopherols. Its beauty is in its simplicity.
There are several forms of tocopherols, but they’re collectively known as vitamin E, a very powerful antioxidant superhero that can help to protect the skin and provide powerful anti-aging effects. Tocopherol acts like a shield that protects your skin and body from free radical damage. Free radicals are rogue molecules that have been damaged by toxins like UVA/UVB rays or pollution. They love to break down your skin’s collagen, cause cancer, hyperpigmentation, and other signs of aging like wrinkles. Tocopherols can counteract the damage done by free radicals while preventing it from happening in the future. They’re also a strong natural preservative.
While vitamin E is an incredible workhorse, the real magic comes from the mountain cypress oil by way of SA. After years of testing, founder Dr. Alvin Berger discovered that SA had healing properties that could exceed those of fish oil. SA also had the ability to protect by making a positive impact on the skin’s lipid layer, contributing to its overall health and wellness and making you look more beautiful and feel better.
Its most impressive function, though, is the ability to decrease chronic inflammation in the skin by working very early in the inflammation cascade. It competes for a spot in the process with arachidonic acid, which plays a big role in producing inflammatory molecules. Overall, it decreases the levels of inflammatory molecules.
The deeply-penetrating formula will absorb into your skin instantly, leaving no greasy residue behind. It may improve barrier functions, keeping bacteria and other irritants from penetrating the skin and causing even more complications.
How Can DELTA-5 Be Used?
There’s no need to consult your magic mirror or wishing well here. DELTA-5 is definitely the most versatile cosmetic oil out there. Use it topically by itself or in conjunction with other products. It is readily-absorbed undiluted.
