Macadamia Carrier Oil
Cold Pressed. As skin ages over the years, our bodies produce smaller amounts of palmitoleic acid which is vital in the production of young looking, soft and supple skin. Fortunately, Macadamia Oil is rich in palmitoleic acid, which is quite rare in vegetable oils.
Macadamia oil contains an even greater quantity of oleic acid which is also rejuvenating and moisturising, therefore these fatty acids work together effectively to help delay skin and cell ageing as well as providing fantastic skin moisturising properties.
How do I use this product?
Macadamia Carrier Oil is the perfect carrier oil to use in skin care and hair care products and beauty regimes. It is ideal for facial and body moisturisers. To obtain a highly nutritious but slow absorbing cream, simply mix a small amount of oil with a professional cream base. In hair products, the oil can be added to your conditioner to smooth hair follicles and split ends.
Alternatively, take a dime-sized dollop of Macadamia Oil, rub it in your palms and then smooth it throughout your hair. Pay careful attention to getting the oil to the ends of your hair to help repair any split ends.
