MACADAMIA TERNIFOLIA | EMOLLIENT/MOISTURISER

High in omega-7 it plays a huge role in replenishing palmitoleic acid, a monounsaturated fatty acid that is a component of our own skin sebum and keeps your skin and hair hydrated. As we age, palmitoleic acid depletes. This is one of the reasons why macadamia nut oil is a key ingredient in many anti-aging products. Also rich in linoleic acid, this is a fatty acid that greatly benefits the skin. It can prevent TEWL, or trans-epidermal water loss, from the delicate tissues of the skin. It's a highly emollient, light penetrating oil that is excellent for dry and mature skins that have a reduced production of natural sebum. It has excellent spreadability, lubrication and penetration properties that imparts a smooth non greasy after effect. It also has a slight sunscreen effect.
