Known as black cumin oil or ‘the beauty oil of the Pharaohs’, Nigella oil is an ancestral treasure that has been used for centuries for its exceptional virtues. Particularly suitable for skin prone to acne, eczema or psoriasis, it is a natural alternative for soothing and repairing the skin.

1. A powerful ally against acne

Nigella oil is rich in purifying active ingredients and essential fatty acids, making it ideal for oily, blemish-prone skin. Its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties help to reduce the appearance of pimples, while promoting healing. By regulating sebum production, it helps to balance the skin and limit the appearance of new blemishes.

2. Soothing and repairing irritated skin (eczema, psoriasis, rosacea)

In addition to its effects on acne, Nigella oil is also recognised for its action on skin suffering from eczema and psoriasis. Its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties calm redness, irritation and itching, offering real relief to sensitised skin. By nourishing and repairing the epidermis, it helps to improve skin comfort and strengthen the skin's protective barrier.

How should it be used?

• As a topical treatment: apply a few drops to the areas concerned, morning and evening, on clean skin.

• Mixed with your day/night cream or a vegetable oil: for a gentler application.

• With aloe vera gel: This blend provides the skin with both nutrition, thanks to Nigella oil, and hydration, thanks to the aqueous properties of aloe vera. 

• On the bust, décolleté or back: in the event of imperfections, redness or itching in these areas.

Tip: Create your own personalised serum with Nigella oil and our essential oil synergies.
