“Do you know that wheat is actually an ancient cereal that has always been cultivated as food? Its origin comes from the Western Asia area, in the so-called “fertile crescent”, corresponding to the ancient Mesopotamia, which benefited from the presence of the Tigris and Euphrates (from the civilizations of the Sumerians, Assyrians and Babylonians; spread to Syria and Palestine, then to the great Egyptian, Greek and Roman civilizations).”

On the other hand, wheat germ oil is extracted from squeezed or cold pressed wheat grain germ. It is dense and has a yellowish colour. In beauty industry, wheat germ oil has become a famous natural ingredient inside many skincare products.

The fact that wheat germ oil is very rich in vitamin E has made the oil suitable to nourish any dry skin and to protect it from further harms that can be caused by external factors, such as wind, UV rays and cold weather. Moreover, it is also a fantastic elixir for long-lasting youthful look.

In addition, this oil restores skin tissues and enhances the condition of hydro-lipid film
