Do you know the amazing ways Guava can be used for the skin?

Plenty of natural things around us need to be explored that can be a boon for our beautiful skin. Fruits are one of those things that make your skin clear and healthy. People are aware of the edible benefits of guava and now it is time to focus on the skin benefiting properties of Guava; not just the fruits but, also its humble leaves!

Guava can be used as extract form in skin care products for achieving healthy skin. Doctors have found that Guava has the maximum amount of antioxidants than other fruits that plays a key role in preventing cellular damage leading to skin aging.

Guava leaves, the least expensive, are the newest source of skin care ingredient. Rich in Vitamins A & C, potassium and magnesium, they are an excellent agent, which can remove dark spots and blemishes on your skin. People have observed drastic changes, when they use guava leaves on their skin and easily get rid of dark spots.

Women hate it when they get those small lines or wrinkles on their face. Guava, the saviour, can actually help reduce lines or wrinkles. Leaves are enriched in antioxidants that fight free radicals, a culprit for the appearance of wrinkles on your skin. This very property of leaves is used in some high end luxury skin care products. Guava leaf extracts are amplified and optimised biologically, through some highly innovative scientific methods to increase its efficacy manifolds. Biologically optimized guava leaf extracts greatly block cell senescence (cells don't divide to give way to newer and healthier skin), Nitric Acid pathways and Eotaxin production in skin. These are deleterious factors that cause inflammation and skin ageing. It eventually can lead to enhanced skin regeneration and reduced wrinkle depth.

Taking into account these miraculous properties of biologically optimised Guava leaves, they can be placed as a highly significant ingredient in anti-ageing and skin rejuvenation products.
