Line st. barth Roucou Sun Oil spf 6 - 125 ML

125 ml glass bottle. The Roucou tree is a plant native to the Caribbean islands that produces clusters of red seeds rich in oil. The indigenous people inhabiting these islands used to apply the oil extracted from the seeds on their body, face, and hair to protect themselves from the sun, heat, salt water, and insects. Ligne St Barth was inspired by this tradition and conducted scientific research on the properties of oil obtained from Roucou seeds. These studies highlighted the presence of Provitamin A, which stimulates the natural production of melanin, a pigment in the basal cells of the epidermis essential in the tanning process. Furthermore, Roucou contains natural sun filters and has anti-inflammatory properties. The special cold extraction procedure allows for maximum effectiveness of the active ingredients of the Roucou plant. The exceptional Roucou complex is the basis of all St Barth sun care products. It gives the skin an intense and long-lasting tan and a sensual softness.
