it is said that cleopatra used an oil and malachite ointment to keep her skin young and beautiful. this mineral in fact, is well known since antiquity for its valuable cosmetic properties giving the skin several benefits:
• moisturising action: skin is fresh and toned.
• antioxidant properties: fights the factors that contribute to skin ageing induced by the aggressive action of external agents, such as uv solar radiation, pollution, atmospheric factors and free radicals, responsible for photoaging. a highly effective and performing action against dull complexion, dehydration, loss of tone and firmness, sagging skin and wrinkles.
• plumping-filling action: it is deposited in small spaces where wrinkles originate and reflects the light.
• brightening action: gives a renewed and radiant luminosity, immediately contrasting unsightly “grey” dull and atonic skin.
