The Kalahari melon seed oil is cold pressed and filtered from the seeds of the melon. This melon is native to the Kalahari Desert, which stretches across Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. During dry periods, the melon becomes an important source of food and above all water.
In contrast to other natural skin care oils, the oil from the seeds of the Kalahari melon contains 70% essential fatty acids and 2,800 mg / kg natural vitamin E - two and five times more than in argan oil. Thanks to this unique combination, the oil of the Kalahari melon is absorbed very quickly by the skin, leaving no greasy residue. It fights wrinkles, nourishes the skin and promotes elasticity. It does not clog pores or hair follicles, can prolong color protection and is therefore ideal for hair and scalp. It increases moisture and calms dry, irritated skin. The high linoleic acid content makes this oil particularly suitable for sensitive skin. The essential fatty acids help to repair the skin barrier, which means that the skin retains more moisture and prevents impurities
Excellent for sensitive, normal, oily and dehydrated skin and for all skin problems.
