Description

This oil is fabulous for a dry, mature skin, which is due to its interesting Fatty Acid profile.

 

Palmitoleic acid: Macadamia Nut Oil contains one of the highest sources of Palmitoleic Fatty Acids, between *6 to *3%.

 

Palmitoleic is vital for delaying skin and cell aging, as our skin ages it rapidly becomes depleted in Palmitoleic Acid,

 

This is why is Macadamia is the perfect inclusion for anti aging formulas.

 

Oleic acid: This Fatty Acid gives Macadamia Nut Oil its fantastic regeneration and moisturizing properties.

 

Linoleic acid: This is a wonderful fatty acid, that helps to prevent trans epidermal water loss (TEWL), from the skins delicate tissues.

 

High in phytosterols: These have a real affinity with the skin.

 

Plant phytosterols are the building blocks of our cell membrane.

 

These sterols work the same way that cholesterol does in our skin, which is one of the reasons why Macadamia nut oil has great skin penetration abilities.
Phytosterols are also calming and healing, which is why the oil is perfect for repairing the skins barrier function.
