A quickly absorbed oil that is multifunctional for skin and hair care. Very nourishing and moisturising with no greasy or sticky after feel.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

A clear to pale yellow mobile liquid with a faint, oily odour expressed from the seeds of the baobab tree which is more commonly called the monkey bread tree.
  • Use 1% to 100%. Best when used as a small part of a blend.
  • Baobab Seed Oil is oil soluble so it cannot be used in water only products. It can be used in small amounts in water based gels that will hold it in suspension.
  • It is heat stable, so it can be used in Stage 1 (fat stage) when making creams and lotions.
Baobab Seed Oil combines very well with Hazelnut Oil for acne-prone skin to make the skin less oily.
 
When blended with Jojoba Oil, it makes excellent hair care products.
Cautions/Contraindications
There have been rare reports of people with nut allergies reacting even though this is a seed oil. If you are unsure, do a small patch test first.

Hair Care
