What Is It?

Macadamia nut oil is a natural oil extracted from the nuts of the macadamia tree, which is native to Australia. It is a non-volatile oil, meaning it doesn't easily evaporate, and it's rich in certain types of fatty acids.

What are the benefits?

When applied to your skin, macadamia nut oil acts as an emollient, meaning it helps make your skin feel softer and smoother. It's easily absorbed without feeling greasy because its fatty acid makeup, especially palmitoleic acid (an Omega-7 fatty acid), is very similar to your skin's natural oils. This oil can help support your skin's natural barrier, leading to better moisture retention, increased hydration, and a more supple look. It also has properties that can soothe and comfort skin, potentially reducing the appearance of redness or dryness. While it doesn't treat skin conditions, its emollient qualities contribute to your skin's overall well-being and appearance.
Comedogenic rating: 2-3
