INCI: Macadamia Integrifolia/Tetraphylla Seed Oil
The high percentage of palmitoleic acid makes this oil skin-friendly. It absorbs well, has a regenerating, cell renewal and skin tightening effect. In addition, it is ideal for hair treatments. This oil has a wonderfully fresh nutty smell.
Macadamia nut oil has a yellowish color and smells delicately nutty. The fatty acid spectrum is characterized by the rare palmitoleic acid in addition to the oleic acid. This combination ensures that the nourishing macadamia nut oil can be easily distributed without leaving a greasy film on the skin. It also strengthens the skin barrier and is considered very well tolerated. Macadamia nut oil is particularly suitable for the care of sensitive, irritated and dry skin. Rough and chapped hands become soft and supple again with hand creams or hand masks containing macadamia nut oil. In body care, macadamia nut oil can be used to prevent stretch marks or for scar care. In addition, macadamia nut oil is used in hair care for color protection of colored hair.
