Treats Hyperpigmentation:
Being a powerhouse of antioxidants, this oil influences the epidermal inflammatory response of this skin, which in turn encourages oxidation of arachidonic acid and stimulates the release of leukotrienes, prostaglandins, etc. These chemicals released to modify the activity of melanocytes and immune cells, which most likely results in hyperpigmentation.
