Looking to elevate your skincare routine with a product that’s both luxurious and deeply effective? Meet Plum Face Oil—a lightweight, nutrient-rich oil cold-pressed from French Ente plums, known for their velvety texture and sweet, marzipan-like aroma. Sourced from sustainable orchards in France, Kyomi Skin’s Pure Plum Face Oil offers a transformative experience for your skin and senses.
Rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins, this organic facial oil helps hydrate, soothe, and protect your skin—making it a must-have for anyone looking to achieve a balanced, glowing complexion.
Nourishment and Hydration for All Skin Types
Plum face oil is praised for its versatility across skin types—including oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. It’s rich in oleic and linoleic acids, which are key to maintaining hydration and restoring the skin’s lipid barrier.
According to Dr. Michele Green, a board-certified dermatologist, plum oil “offers hydration and antioxidant benefits and can be beneficial for all skin types—even oily or acne-prone skin—when used correctly” (Green, M., 2022).
Its natural emollients lock in moisture while absorbing quickly without leaving behind a greasy residue. This makes it an ideal base for both daytime protection and overnight repair.
A 2020 study in Molecules confirmed that plum kernel oil contains over 70% oleic acid and 20% linoleic acid—fatty acids that nourish and protect the skin barrier (Molecules, 2020).
Anti-Aging Benefits: Fighting Oxidative Stress Naturally
One of the most powerful aspects of plum face oil is its anti-aging potential. It contains tocopherols (vitamin E) and polyphenols, two antioxidant groups that help neutralize free radicals—unstable molecules that cause collagen breakdown, fine lines, and dullness.
A study in Food Chemistry found that plum kernel oil demonstrates high oxidative stability, making it ideal for protecting skin from environmental stress (Dachery et al., 2016).
These antioxidants work synergistically to:
-
Improve skin elasticity
-
Reduce fine lines
-
Boost collagen production
-
Support the skin’s natural repair processes
The result? A firmer, more radiant complexion with fewer visible signs of aging.
The Power of Essential Fatty Acids
Plum oil is packed with essential fatty acids—particularly oleic (omega-9) and linoleic acid (omega-6)—which play a crucial role in skin function.
These fatty acids:
-
Reinforce the skin barrier, improving hydration and resilience
-
Soothe inflammation, calming conditions like eczema and rosacea
-
Support cell regeneration, accelerating skin healing and renewal
-
Improve the absorption of other skincare products by enhancing skin permeability
According to research in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, linoleic acid helps reduce hyperkeratinization and inflammation, making it ideal for acne-prone or inflamed skin (JID, 2002).
Whether you’re tackling dryness, redness, or irritation, plum face oil delivers a full spectrum of healing benefits that restore your skin’s glow.
Healing & Soothing Properties
If your skin is inflamed, sensitive, or struggling with irritation, plum oil’s anti-inflammatory compounds—including vitamin E and polyphenols—offer relief.
These compounds work to:
-
Reduce redness and swelling
-
Minimize acne flare-ups
-
Help fade scars and post-acne marks
-
Strengthen the skin’s recovery process after damage or sun exposure
Polyphenols are shown to reduce inflammatory signaling in skin and protect against oxidative DNA damage, making them essential in calming reactive skin (Nutrients, 2018).
The omega fatty acids in plum oil also support healing by maintaining hydration, which is essential for tissue regeneration. This makes plum oil a gentle but powerful option for post-treatment care or for skin conditions like eczema.
The Aromatherapy Bonus: Marzipan Scent & Mood Elevation
Beyond its skin benefits, Kyomi’s Plum Face Oil offers a deeply relaxing aromatherapy experience. The natural bitter almond (marzipan) aroma comes from benzaldehyde, a compound present in the kernel of French Ente plums.
This scent:
-
Promotes calmness and emotional balance
-
Reduces stress and anxiety after long days
-
Enhances your nighttime skincare ritual for deeper relaxation
A 2021 review in Frontiers in Psychology found that aromatherapy with sweet, almond-like scents helps lower cortisol levels and improve overall mood (Front. Psychol., 2021).
Whether used in the morning for a fresh start or in the evening as a wind-down ritual, this oil enhances the emotional benefits of skincare.
How to Use Plum Face Oil for Best Results
Morning:
-
Apply 2–3 drops after cleansing and before sunscreen
-
Blend with moisturizer or foundation for a natural glow
Evening:
-
Massage a few drops onto damp skin as the final step in your skincare routine
-
Pair with facial massage to enhance circulation and relaxation
Pro Tip:
Plum oil acts as a booster—apply it after serums to seal in their benefits and improve absorption.
Patch test before regular use, especially if you have highly sensitive skin.
