There's a hot new beauty oil everyone is raving about these days and I'm not talking coconut oil. No it's far more luxurious. Think argan oil but less greasy and packed with a zillion more beauty benefits. Okay, still don't know what I'm talking about? I'm referring to maracuja oil. It's a fancy schmanzy oil that comes from various varieties of Passionflower plant and passion fruit seeds. It's light, it's moisturizing and will change your skin forever!

The first time I used this amazing formula was with Tarte's Maracuja Oil. This thing didn't just deeply hydrate my skin but it also gave me a much more even-toned complexion. Why? Well because apparently the oil is packed with high doses of vitamin C. No wonder it's known as "puro milagro (pure miracle)." I'm telling you, this is the best stuff you can ever put on your skin. Check out some of it's beauty benefits below!
It moisturizes: One of the main reasons to use maracuja oil in your beauty routine is for it's ultra-moisturizing benefits. But don't worry this one won't leave your face looking greasy and shiny.
It won't clog pores: Unlike coconut, almond or even argan oil, maracuja oil is super light. So light in fact, it won't clog pores or cause breakouts. It's great for all skin types–oily and acne-prone included!
It can treat acne: Due to its natural anti-inflammatory benefits, maracuja can actually help clear skin and reduce acne.
Anti-ages: It's packed with natural antioxidants that help prevent free radicals that cause wrinkles, fine lines and dark spots. I recommend incorporating it in your anti-aging regimen. Layer it under your favorite moisturizer and suncreen.
It relieves itching skin: Got dry, itching skin? Maracuja oil helps sooth itchiness and irritation while reducing inflammation.
Banishes blemishes: The vitamin C found in maracuja oil helps fade dark spots and manchas, leaving you with a clearer, brighter and more even skin tone.
