Organic Baobab Seed Oil
The Baobab fruit grows on the legendary Baobab Tree, a symbol of Africa and one of the oldest trees on the planet. Inside the coconut-sized and hard wooden shell, the Baobab fruit dries naturally on the tree. An innovative, exclusively mechanical process is used to separate the seeds from the dry pulp and the funicles. The seeds are then cold-pressed (T<45°C) to preserve the essential minerals and nutrients, and the Baobab oil is extracted for use in cosmetic formulations.
Baobab seed oil is 100% natural and organic, with no chemicals or preservatives added. It has a characteristic pleasant scent, a yellow-gold color, and a clear, pure appearance.
It is very stable against rancidity, has great nourishing, soothing, and moisturizing properties, and absorbs well due to its high percentage of oleic acid.
