Kukui Nut oil, also known as candlenut oil, is derived from the seeds of the Aleurites moluccanus tree, which is native to Hawaii and Southeast Asia. It is an excellent source of essential fatty acids such as linoleic and alpha-linolenic, which are vital for maintaining healthy skin. These fatty acids are known to penetrate deep into the skin and keep it hydrated for a longer duration.
Kukui Nut oil is a semi-clear liquid that has a very mild or no odor, and it blends well with other oils and ingredients, making it a popular choice for skincare products. Due to its lightweight texture, it easily penetrates the skin and provides immediate relief to dry, irritated, or sunburned skin. It forms a protective barrier that prevents skin from drying out and doesn't leave any oily residue, making it ideal for all skin types.
Apart from its moisturizing properties, Kukui Nut oil is also known for its healing properties. When applied topically, it helps prevent scarring and promotes the healing of damaged tissue. It is also said to aid in the relief of itchy, dry skin associated with eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea.
Our Kukui Nut oil is lightly filtered after cold pressing to remove debris and is 100% natural for optimum benefits. It is a great addition to your daily skincare routine and can be used alone or blended with other oils to create a customized skincare product that suits your skin's needs.
