CARRIER OILS:
Tamanu Oil – Organic unrefined tamanu oil is a slightly viscous or thick oil with a dark yellow to green hue. Its viscosity and average rate of absorbency makes it not only incredibly hydrating but useful for preventing moisture loss from skin and hair.
Olive Oil – Organic extra virgin olive oil is a widely popular, all-purpose oil that is golden green in color. It is very rich in oleic acid (70%), vitamins A and E, and hydrophilic phenols. The oleic acid content of olive oil is very readily absorbed by the skin and is extremely hydrating; this attribute possibly contributes to why olive oil is regarded as one of the most permeating oils on the market which makes it very well suited to hydrate and restore dry, distressed hair and skin.
Apricot Kernel Oil – Organic unrefined apricot kernel oil is a mild, fast-absorbent, and nourishing oil that is a beautiful pale yellow to yellow in color. It is very rich in vitamins A, C, and E and oleic, linoleic, alpha-Linoleic, and palmitic acids. Apricot kernel oil’s vitamin E and fatty acid contents make it a very emollient oil and perfect for deeply hydrating skin and hair and keeping them soft and supple.
Avocado Oil – Organic unrefined avocado oil is an emollient, highly permeating, anti-aging, and healing oil with a characteristic dark green color. It is rich in vitamins A, C, D, and E, as well as mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Avocado oil’s emollient and highly permeating attributes make it particularly effective at maintaining the skin’s barrier function (which is beneficial for preventing moisture loss) and nurturing the skin, scalp, and hair.
