3. Nourishment and repair: It is rich in vitamins A, E and B, which help nourish the skin and promote cell regeneration.

4. Antioxidant: The vitamin E it contains acts as an antioxidant, protecting the skin from damage caused by free radicals, helping to prevent premature ageing and the appearance of wrinkles.
