About this product
A few drops warmed between your palms, pressed into the skin at the end of the day, and then, almost at once, gone. Macadamia nut oil sinks in so quickly that it has been called a vanishing oil.
It is cold-pressed from the nuts of Macadamia integrifolia, tetraphylla or ternifolia, and it is rich in palmitoleic acid, with about 60% oleic acid plus omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Palmitoleic acid is found in the skin's own sebum when we are young, and the level drops as skin matures, which is why macadamia is suggested for older skin. It suits all skin types, softens and tones dry or aged skin, and is very stable: it needs no added antioxidants and can even help lengthen the life of shorter-lived skin care oils in a blend.
