Organic Macadamia Oil - 100% Virgin (Certified by The Soil Association)

ON THE BODY
You will have understood, the benefits of macadamia oil for the skin are countless. This treatment is particularly recommended in case of fragile, unbalanced skin, prone to the famous «croco skin» and stretch marks.

ON THE FACE
Macadamia oil can also be used as a substitute for your organic make-up remover. The texture of an oil allows to effectively clean even waterproof makeup, while respecting the fragility of the epidermis. Contrary to popular belief, a vegetable oil does not necessarily grease the skin. You just have to choose it according to your needs, and think about checking its comedogenicity index (rated from 0 to 5, this index allows you to know if this or that oil is likely to cause the appearance of comedones by clogging the pores). Macadamia oil has a 2/5 index. It is therefore considered to be not very comedogenic. Good news for combination to oily skin!

ON HANDS
The hands are particularly vulnerable to external aggressions. Various manipulations throughout the day, regular washing with soap and/ or hydroalcoholic gel... They tend to quickly dry out and lose their sweetness. Macadamia oil helps restore their damaged hydrolipidic film.

ON HAIR
Your hair is dry? Your hair lacks tone and looks sad? Macadamia oil is for you. For dry, fine, coloured hair damaged by the intensive use of heating devices, sea salt, chlorine or dyes, it is a real rejuvenation bath that will strengthen and rehydrate the hair fiber in depth, and preserve your color. And, miracle, it leaves no greasy finish!

Macadamia integrifolia, or Queensland walnut, is a slow-growing tree native to eastern Australia. The Australian aborigines who named the nuts "gyndl" or "jindilli" traded this nut, rich in protein, with the first white settlers of the East Autralienne coast who exported these nuts around the world. Today, macadamia is naturalized in many countries including Kenya, Hawaii and South Africa where it is grown for its nuts, sweet and oily, consumed raw or grilled, as well as for its good quality wood used in woodwork.

It is extracted by cold pressing, free of any trace of chemical products and unrefined: the fruits are pressed mechanically at room temperature, then the juice collected is filtered to obtain a pure oil, natural, having retained all its nutritional principles.

This vegetable oil is extremely rich in protein and fatty acids. It contains:

- more than 50% omega 9 oleic acid: omega 9 oleic acid has protective and nourishing properties, ideal for keeping dry skin. It strengthens the skin’s hydrolipidic film, and helps maintain its flexibility and elasticity.



- more than 20% omega 7 palmitoleic acid: anti-inflammatory and promotes healing, this mono-unsaturated fatty acid protects cell membranes and helps to maintain healthy skin. Close to human sebum, it easily penetrates the epidermis, moisturizes and strengthens without leaving a greasy film.

- more than 10% palmitic acid and stearic acid: palmitic acid is a saturated fatty acid that constitutes an important component of the skin barrier and the so-called «acid» layer of the epidermis. With stearic acid, they provide the skin and hair with all the necessary hydration, thanks to their emollient and film-forming properties.

- 3% alpha linolenic acid omega 3: this essential acid can not be synthesized by the body. It must therefore be consumed and applied to the epidermis. Its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory power brings flexibility to the skin while soothing skin irritations.

- 1 to 3% of omega 6 linoleic acid: finally, omega 6 is involved in the production of cell membranes and allows the skin to preserve its elasticity, its hydration level, and fully ensure its protective barrier role.

Because it provides hydration and protection, prevents the first signs of aging and strengthens the skin’s hydrolipid film, macadamia oil is a must-have for your bathroom, for all healthy and natural beauty. It can be used on all skin types, whether dry, very dry, mixed, oily, atopic, and on young and mature skin!

Its fluid texture allows easy application, and its ability to penetrate the epidermis quickly makes it particularly pleasant to use. Do not hesitate to mix a few drops of essential oils with macadamia oil. They will then be perfectly assimilated by your skin, which will thus fully benefit from all their benefits.
