on wounds and has gained the attention more recently for amazing ability to help promote new skin tissue, reduce scarring
associated with stretch marks and it soothes dry itchy skin. #tamanuoil

· Macadamia Oil
The

and produces a small round nut that is widely popular and delicious to eat.

(palmitoreic acid) which is vital for delaying skin and cell aging. It has high
oxidative stability meaning the use of added preservatives are not necessary.
Macadamia oil has a wonderful affinity for the skin. It contains oleic acid
which is fantastic for regeneration and moisturising and Phytosterols which are
the building blocks of our cell membrane and aids recovery. This oil works in
the same way as skin oils giving it great skin penetrating properties. #macadamiaoil

produced by the body. It is light and readily absorbed resulting in soft and
supple skin. It is able to penetrate deeply into the skin, making it non-greasy
with no oil layer left on the skin. It is anti-ageing, anti-inflammatory,
antibacterial, and is amazing for oily skin as it regulates the production of
sebum. #jojobaoil
