Discovering the best carrier oil for absorption can make a significant difference in the effectiveness of your
skincare routine, and one standout option is Tamanu oil.
A precious green gold derived from the nut kernels of the Tamanu tree, Tamanu Oil has been gaining popularity in the skincare world. Its unique absorption properties make it a potent remedy for various skin conditions and enhance its moisturizing effect.
Penetrates Outer Layer of Skin
Despite its thick consistency, one of the most remarkable properties of tamanu oil is its ability to penetrate theouter layer of the skin effectively, reaching the underlying tissue layers. This deep penetration allows the oil to deliver its benefits directly where they're needed most.
Non-Greasy Feel
Even though tamanu oil is rich and dense, it does not leave a greasy residue on the skin after application. Instead, it leaves the skin feeling satiny or slightly oily, enhancing your skin's natural glow without clogging pores. This non-greasy feel makes it a preferred choice for those who dislike the heavy feel common with some other oils.
Protective Layer Formation
Upon application, tamanu oil forms a protective layer on the skin surface. This layer helps to lock in moisture and shield the skin from environmental irritants, which can contribute to various skin issues. This property of creating a barrier is particularly beneficial for those with sensitive skin or conditions like eczema or psoriasis.
Unique Active Compounds
The oil's unique fatty acid profile, including calophyllic acid and other active compounds, aids its absorption into the skin. These compounds offer therapeutic benefits, contributing to tamanu Oil's healing, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. These compounds are unique to tamanu oil and are part of what makes it such a beneficial addition to skincare routines.
Versatility in Skincare Formulations
Thanks to its effective absorption properties, tamanu oil is a popular ingredient in various skincare formulations, including creams, lotions, and serums. Whether used alone or in combination with other ingredients, its absorption properties enable it to deliver its beneficial properties effectively.
We use Tamanu oil in our Super Custom Anti-Aging Blend and in our Advanced Pain and Nerve Formula. In both cases, the high absorption property of Tamanu helps not only to moisturize the skin but to deliver essential oil medicine to the deeper skin layers and beyond.
It's essential to remember that everyone's skin reacts differently to different skincare products. Always conduct a patch test before incorporating new ingredients into your skincare routine, and consult with a dermatologist or healthcare provider if you have any concerns or specific skin conditions.
In conclusion, tamanu oil's absorption properties make it an excellent choice for those looking to enhance their skincare regimen. Its ability to penetrate skin layers, non-greasy feel, protective layer formation, unique active compounds, and versatility in skincare formulations set it apart as a truly special oil.
