Tamanu Carrier Oil (Madagascar)


Average Product Rating: 5 / 5 (Based on 4 Customer Reviews)


Botanical Name: Calophyllum Inophyllum

Extraction Method: Cold Pressed

Description: This variety of Tamanu Oil originates in Madagascar although Tamanu can be found in South East Asia. The fruit (seeds) are hand gathered from the coastal Tamanu trees, as they are said to yield the highest quality oil. It is grows up to three meters tall, sporting cracked, black bark and elliptical, shiny leaves. The Tamanu tree blooms twice annually with fragrant, white flowers, which later yield clusters of yellow-skinned spherical fruit.

Color: Dark green viscous oily liquid.

Aromatic Description: Tamanu Madagascar Carrier Oil has a rich, woody-spicy oil scent.

Common Uses: Tamanu Carrier Oil is reputed to have wondrous wound-healing properties, as well as being a cure-all for almost every skin ailment you can think of, from acne to eczema to psoriasis, but all of the miraculous claims are hinged on anecdotal, not scientific, evidence. There’s no harm in using this oil in skin care—like most oils, it is composed of phospholipids and glycolipids, and these are natural constituents of healthy skin and are good water-binding agents. It is a powerful healer for burns, cuts, eczema, burns, rashes and insect bites. It can be applied neat to the skin or blended with other carrier oils.

Consistency: Solid at room temperature. Product should be heated in a warm water bath in order to liquefy.

Absorption: Absorbs into skin at average speed, slight oil feeling left on skin.

Shelf Life: Users can expect a shelf life of 6 months to 1 year with proper storage conditions (cool, out of direct sunlight). Refrigeration after opening is recommended.

Cautions: Persons with nut allergy should not use this oil.

I have been using this Tamanu on my face for 2 months steady now. It has not only erased new scars but has begun to fade very old scars. Tamanu has a bit of a strong odor so I'll mix in a drop of Sandalwood before I apply to my skin. Fabulous stuff!

I quite enjoy the nutty scent of this oil. I love to add a few drops to facial serums and oil cleanses. It's a great moisturizer and contributes a subtle, pleasant scent.

Wow! Great new addition. I also have made an eye cream with it. The spicy nutty scent goes well with frankincense and jasmine.

I made eye cream using this oil and it is absolutely amazing! I also love how it glides on the skin and how it blends well with other ingredients. I stayed away with essential oil with this recipe as I want to the oil stand out by itself!I will definitely make a special product line using this oil!
