When it comes to skincare, finding the right ingredients that provide real benefits can be a challenge. One ingredient that has been gaining attention in recent years is the Quandong, an Australian native superfruit. But what exactly is the Quandong and how can it benefit your skin?
What is the Quandong?
The Quandong, also known as the desert peach, is a small fruit native to Australia. It grows on a tree called Santalum acuminatum, which is found in the arid regions of the country. The fruit has a bright red skin and a tart, slightly sour taste. It has been used by Aboriginal Australians for centuries not only as a nutritious food but also for medicinal purposes.
Special Features of the Quandong
Despite its small size, the Quandong is packed with nutrients that can benefit your skin. It is rich in antioxidants, such as vitamin C and E, which help protect the skin from free radicals and environmental damage. The vitamin C content of the Quandong is twice the amount found in oranges while its antioxidant levels surpass well-known fruits like blueberries. Additionally, the fruit is a good source of essential fatty acids, which help maintain the skin's natural barrier and keep it hydrated.
