Paradise Seed Oil

With more than 40 years of experience in the manufacture of chemical specialties PROTECNICA INGENIERIA has carried out an exhaustive investigation into the properties of the seeds produced by the ancestral and scarce tree Lecithys Minor, known as Monkey Pot, the results obtained with the Magdalena River Seeds led us to give life to our project:

Magdalena River Seeds
A SOURCE OF NATURAL SELENIUM

It is in the rich and fertile soil of Colombian Caribbean along the banks of the mythical Magdalena River where the Monkey trees grow abundantly, In the middle of a virgin ecosystem, around these valleys where low-income communities live. The source of livehood is through fishing and in many cases deforestation of native species in the area. As a Company, we encourage sustainability. As a major step to protect these trees, we support communities through the purchase of the seeds.
This way, our objectives act on 3 fronts:

- Protection of biodiversity
- Development of the community
- Explore supply of Natural selenium and its derivatives from the seeds.

Paradise Seed Oil is obtained through a cold pressing process, from which this 100% natural virgin oil is extracted. Available in limited quantities due to its wild origin, it has characteristics that make it unique in its kind.

It contains excellent antioxidant and moisturizing properties due to its high content of unsaturated fatty acids higher than 70% and vitamin E.

Paradise Seed Oil forms a protective film in the epidermal layer that blocks the evaporation of moisture, which reduces the loss of Trans Epidermal Water (TEWL). Promotes and maintains lasting hydration; acting as an excellent protector of the skin, highlighting its anti-aging properties.

Clinical studies developed by Derma Consult Concept Gmbh in Bonn-Germany prove the efficacy of Paradise Seed Oil to combat wrinkles, visible sign of aging. 90% of the volunteers observed a positive effect in the reduction of wrinkles, in only 4 weeks of use.

Its protective moisturizing and antioxidant properties are attributed to the presence of omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids and vitamin E. It has been found to help reduce fine lines and other facial wrinkles, a study conducted by Derma Consult Concept Gmbh - Germany; conferring multiple cosmetic properties.

As for its sensory, it is a slightly yellow oil, with a great transparency, the taste tends to be neutral, but a little sweet. The delicate aroma originated from the large amount of organic compounds and the long maturation process of the seeds.

When in contact with the skin, its extreme purity turns it into a light oil, quickly absorbed with a soft and silky touch.
