DESCRIPTION 

Batana Carrier Oil – Unrefined is a rare oil cold-pressed from the kernels of the American palm (Elaeis oleifera), long cherished by the Miskito people of Honduras and now celebrated worldwide as the viral “liquid gold.” Rich in Vitamin E, linoleic acid, palmitic acid, and carotenoids, this nutrient-dense oil lends strength and nourishment to both hair and skin care formulations.   

In hair masks and scalp treatments, Batana Carrier Oil smooths frizz, enhances shine, and improves manageability, especially for curly, coily, and dry textures. In skin creams and body care, it replenishes hydration and leaves skin soft, supple, and radiant. With its deep brown hue and smoky, coffee-like aroma, this authentic oil adds natural character and sensory richness, making it one of the most sought-after ingredients in today’s beauty products.
