Ingredient Spotlight: Baobab Oil

Pronounced bay-o-bab, this oil is extracted from the seeds of the large Baobab fruits produced by trees that grow wild in South Africa. As many of these trees are over 100 years old they are often referred to as the Tree of Life.

The Baobab fruit has been nicknamed the ‘superfruit’ as it naturally contains essential fatty acids, including omega 3 & 6, stearols and antioxidants, vitamins A, E, D, F and high levels of vitamin C.
 
Baobab oil penetrates quickly, is soothing, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory, won't clog pores and promotes skin elasticity and anti-aging benefits. This oil is also believed to be good for cancer patients, wounds, eczema, psoriasis and acne.
