FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Pure Organic Excellence: Macadamia Nut Organic Oil - Unrefined preserves its full spectrum of natural lipids and is free of synthetic pesticides, fertilizers, or GMOs. This organic ingredient is recommended for natural skin care and hair care lines that prioritize transparency and ethical sourcing.
Lightweight, Non-Greasy Feel: Despite its richness, this oil delivers a smooth, satiny texture without leaving a heavy residue. This makes it an ideal choice for products that call for quick absorption and a luxurious after-feel.
Nutrient-Rich Profile: Macadamia Nut Oil is naturally high in oleic acid and palmitoleic acid, which are monounsaturated fatty acids that support skin hydration and softness. When applied topically, the organic variety of this carrier oil delivers targeted nourishment for dry, mature, or sensitive skin.
Antioxidant Support & Stability: Unrefined and antioxidant-rich, Organic Macadamia Nut Oil helps protect formulations from oxidation, extending shelf life while preserving product integrity.
DESCRIPTION
Macadamia Nut Organic Carrier Oil – Unrefined is a premium-quality oil cold pressed from the kernels of the Macadamia integrifolia tree. Unrefined and certified organic by the QAI and the USDA, this variety retains its natural golden hue, mild nutty aroma, and beneficial fatty acids.
Renowned for its high content of palmitoleic acid (omega 7), a fatty acid naturally found in human sebum, Organic Macadamia Nut Oil mimics the skin’s natural composition. It helps soothe and moisturize dry or aging skin, support barrier function, and improve the overall appearance of skin tone and texture. In hair care, it helps smooth the cuticle, enhance shine, and improve manageability without weighing hair down.
Perfect for organic skin care lines, massage formulations, and conditioning hair treatments, Macadamia Nut Organic Oil - Unrefined is a versatile cosmetic ingredient for formulators looking to develop high-performance products with certified organic appeal.
DIRECTIONS AND SUGGESTED USAGE
- Skin Care Formulations: Use at 1% to 10% in organic facial moisturizers, emulsions, and body care formulations to improve skin softness and reduce trans epidermal water loss. For richer emollient effects, it can be used at higher concentrations in thicker formulations such as body butters.
- Massage and Body Oils: Organic Macadamia Nut Oil’s light viscosity and smooth glide make it suitable for full body and massage formulations and can be incorporated at 10% to 100%.
- Hair and Scalp Care: Add Macadamia Nut Organic Oil at 1% to 5% to shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments to support hydration, shine, and detangling.
