Amazonian chestnut milk
Leche de castaña amazónica, sourced from the Amazon rainforest up to 500 meters above sea level in regions like Loreto, Madre de Dios, and Ucayali, is rich in healthy fats, vitamins E and B, and antioxidants. This nut milk is particularly beneficial for skin health, as vitamin E helps protect skin cells from oxidative damage, promotes collagen production, and improves skin elasticity. The omega-9 and omega-6 fatty acids hydrate the skin from within, keeping it supple and youthful. Additionally, its antioxidants combat free radicals, preventing premature aging and enhancing skin texture.
