Presentation
Organic macadamia vegetable oil is recommended for fragile, devitalised, dry or irritated skin, in the treatment of stretch marks and scars as well as for hair and hand care (cracks, chapping). This vegetable oil has exceptional moisturizing properties.
Leaving no greasy trace on the skin, this oil is rather considered as “dry oil”. Due to its excellent penetrating power it is often used as a massage base. Quite similar to sweet almond oil, macadamia oil lends itself particularly well to aromatic blends combined with essential oils.
Macadamia oil is one of the most stable natural emollients because it has a high percentage of monounsaturated fatty acids and low in polyunsaturated fatty acids, which makes it more stable to oxidation.
Rich in fatty acids close to the sebum of the skin, it effectively prevents dehydration and leaves the skin soft and satiny.
This oil has a good amount of palmitoleic acid, a rather special fatty acid : an omega-7, naturally present in membrane lipids, which has the function of protecting lipids from oxidation. Which makes it very nourishing and regenerating. In addition, the softening property of this oil restores suppleness and elasticity to the skin, making it possible to better fight against skin aging.
Soothing and calming, it is mainly recommended for damaged and fragile skin. It can be used in the care of hair, hands and, as macadamia oil is renowned for facilitating local micro-circulation and toning, it will be perfect as a massage oil.
With its filtering and protective action against ultraviolet radiation, this oil provides slight protection against UV radiation. However, it will not replace the action of a sunscreen product.
Focus on macadamia vegetable oil
Botanical name : Macadamia ternifolia, from organic farming
Native to eastern Australia and the tropical forests of Queensland, the macadamia tree is about 20 m tall. The name is a tribute to the Scottish-born Australian botanist, John Macadam, who botanically classified this plant in the 19th century. The flowers are pink or white depending on the species. Flowering occurs in spring in clusters about 30 cm long. Each will develop about twenty nuts. The nuts are covered in a green shell that will eventually crack open to release the brown shell. Macadamia vegetable oil is a transparent oily liquid, sometimes slightly yellow verging on green. Its smell and taste are reminiscent of roasted hazelnuts. Its touch is unctuous even viscous but surprisingly well penetrating.
