Açaí oil (Euterpe oleracea) represents a new cosmetic ingredient, originating from the Amazon rainforest, which brings several benefits for maintaining skin balance. Its structure is mainly composed of anthocyanins, phytosterols, essential fatty acids (EFAs). The fatty acid profile of açaí oil qualifies it as a special edible oil, mainly due to linoleic acid (Omega 6) and oleic acid (Omega 9), and its composition predominantly contains monounsaturated fatty acids (up to 61%). and polyunsaturated fatty acids (up to 10.6%), both recommended for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
Among the phytosterols present in açaí oil are beta-sitosterol, stigmasterol and campesterol, which are widely used by the cosmetic industry to prevent skin aging by promoting cell metabolism and reducing inflammation.
