Benefits: A day & night serum for even skin and oil balance, cleansing oil/ makeup remover. Offers lightweight, intensive moisturisation and a fast deep penetrating hydration boost. A non-greasy and fast-absorbing oil. African Baobab Oil is rich in antioxidants and nutrients including vitamins A, B, C, D, E, F and K, and Omega fatty acids 3, 6 and 9. They help the cells perform optimally and keep the skin healthy. The high vitamin C content stimulates collagen production which slows down the ageing process of the skin, reduces blemishes and is a vital substance for firm, radiant, youthful-looking skin and restores the elasticity of skin. Baobab oil has a comedogenic rating of 2. This means that it is unlikely to clog pores. This can also help to restore, heal or soothe eczema and acne, heal damaged skin and hair, heal bruises and burns and soothe inflamed scalp.
Ideal for hair when it lacks shine, lustre and is in need of reviving. When used as a hair mask or a leave-in conditioner, baobab oil may help moisturise dry hair and strengthen weak, dry hair.
In the Savannah Region, Bolgatanga and the Northern region of Ghana Baobab oil is used to prevent and cure nappy rash in babies and prevent stretch marks for new mothers. Baobab oil can also be used for nail care and chapped lips.
