PLANT OILS

－

Since the dawn of time, Men has been nurtures by beauty oils. Each region of the world boasts oils derived from indigenous plants, which are often naturally suited to the needs of the skin and hair of the people who hail from the same soil. Officine Universelle Buly knows their properties, and selects and recommends these precious oils for their undeniable cosmetic benefits.

Officine Universelle Buly picks only virgin oils and macerates, either cold-pressed or obtained through other gentle maceration and extraction methods, the seeds, fruits, flowers and stems from which they are extracted have been treated delicately and only once, without resorting to any heat or chemical treatment. Thus, once filtered, they can better preserve the richness of their virtues.

They must be carefully stored in a temperate environment in order to retain their stability and effectiveness. They can be used pure or diluted, either massaged onto the body, gently smoothed over the face, or rubbed into the hair. All-natural and well-adapted to the needs of the skin, these oils are easily assimilated and wonderfully effective.

The raw materials’ counter at Officine Universelle Buly, as anything that has to do with nature, is dependent on the seasons, the whims of the harvest and the vagaries of transportation. Oils, clays and powders as well as curios and rarities can be seasonal. We are grateful for your patience.

The prickly pear is a thorny berry, the fruit of a robust cactus native to Mexico which now thrives on the most sunlit shores of the Mediterranean. Its oil, which is difficult to extract, is precious. Rich in vitamin E and sterols, it is effective in warding off the signs of ageing in mature skin, which it imbues with renewed firmness and tonicity. Its action is also beneficial after exposure to the sun. it is preferably applied in the evening, by gently or deeply massaging onto the face.
