6 benefits of copaiba for the skin; treating acne is one of them

Copaíba oil or copaíba balsam is extracted from the trunk of an Amazonian tree called copaibeira. A curious fact is that this tree is venerated in the region as a “miracle tree”.

There are plenty of reasons to receive this name. The powerful active ingredient is rich in sesquiterpenes, such as beta-bisabolene and beta-caryophyllene, recognized anti-inflammatory, anti-irritant and protective substances, and copalic acid, which is calming and analgesic.

Benefits of Copaíba for the skin

1 - Helps in the treatment, prevention and control of acne, contributing to the “drying” of pimples, due to its anti-inflammatory effect and protection of the skin barrier.

2- Balances natural oiliness.

3 - Promotes a glow to the skin, as its resin has a high capacity to reflect light, forming a natural film on the dermis.

4- It can also be indicated for skin problems, such as psoriasis, eczema and mycoses.

5 - In the body, it restores water balance, promoting super hydration.

6 - It has antioxidants to combat free radicals, minimizing wrinkles and expression lines, preventing premature aging.
