Acai Berry, what is it and how can it benefit your skin?

What is Açaí (ah-sigh-EE)?

Açaí is a small, dark purple berry like fruit that grows in the Amazon rainforests of Sout America. Açaí has become popular in recent years both as a Superfood and a Super-facial due to its good taste and great health and skin benefits.

Açaí berries are packed with high levels of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, and may be eaten, turned into a smoothie bowl, or used as part of a Tx Bar Geelong Societe Açaí Berry Peel.

3 Ways Açaí Berries can Benefit Your Skin:

Due to their antioxidants, fatty acids and nutrient content, Açaí is often touted as being beneficial to the skin.

Antioxidant Protection: Because of their high antioxidants, especially Anthocyanins, Açaí helps protect the skin from oxidative damage and free radicals which can cause ageing, fine lines and wrinkles.  Neutralising free radicals helps to prevent the breakdown of collagen and elastin, resulting in firmer, younger skin and reduced signs of ageing.

Hydration: Due to their fatty acid content (including omega-3, omega-6, omega-9), Açaí berries help maintain the skin’s lipid barrier, helping to prevent dryness, while maintaining moisture. Skin that is well hydrated looks healthy and radiant.

Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Skin conditions such as redness, acne and irritation can be caused by inflammation. Because it contains anti-inflammatory properties like phytochemicals and vitamins, Acai may help to soothe and calm the skin.

At Tx Bar Geelong we offer the Societe Açaí Berry Skin Peel which combines rich antioxidants in a liquid gel form containing Alpha-Hydroxy Acid (AHA’s), Lactic Acid and Malic Acid.

When applied by our talented Beauty Therapists, this peel is designed to accelerate the removal of the top layer of skin, resulting in a brighter, more even-toned glowing skin.
