THE BENEFITS OF MACADAMIA OIL

When we formulated Tahitian Oil, we wanted to create a highly potent blend of tropical oils that worked together to create an exponentially beneficial body care treatment. 

In addition to monoi, kukui and passion fruit oils, Tahitian Oil features macadamia oil in our formulation for its exceptional skin benefits.

  • softening skin;
  • regenerating skin cells;
  • moisturizing skin; and
  • is a natural anti-inflammatory.

  • LINOLEIC ACID:  (Omega 6) Linoleic acid serves to balance sebum production in oily skin and is great for a skin that has difficulty retaining moisture.
  • PALMITOLEIC ACID: (Omega 7) Palmitoleic Acid is beneficial for healing wounds, scratches + burns.  We included macadamia specifically because it contains one of the highest sources of palmitoleic acids, ranging between 16 to 23%.  Palmitoleic Acid is also ital for delaying premature aging by decreasing the rate of skin deterioration.
