Botanical name:

Sclerocarya Birrea Seed Oil

Origin:

The drought-resistant marula tree grows in Namibia and reaches a height of up to 20 meters. The falling ripe fruits are picked up in wild collections from April to November. There is a very hard seed under the pulp, which in turn contains two to three seeds. These are removed by hand and have an oil content of over 50%.

Ingredients:

Marula oil has a high proportion of monounsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidants:

• Oleic acids such as stearic acid, palmitic acid and linoleic acid
• Antioxidants such as polyphenols and vitamin C (60% more antioxidants than argan oil)
• Vitamin E (y-tocopherol)
• Minerals such as iron, zinc, magnesium, copper and phosphorus

Applications:

Marula oil has a light texture, is absorbed very quickly and is moisturizing. This luxury oil can be used as part of a skin and hair care product or as a pure care or massage oil. It is suitable for mature as well as sensitive and dry skin.
Marula oil is one of the best care oils in Africa and is considered the Elixir of Youth.
