Sourced from the Northern Rivers, our Macadamia Oil holds several highly beneficial advantages to our skin. Not only is it a fantastic moisturiser but daily ritual use is a great way to aid age-defying skin, show natural soft skin and is suitable for a wide range of skin types.
The science behind Macadamia Oils has been around for a long time and as a natural barrier opener, Macadamia Oil helps your skin better absorb other nurturing extracts.
“Australian macadamia oil contains beneficial nutrients for healthy skin including phytosterols for skin protection and repair. Australian macadamia oil also contains the antioxidants vitamin E and squalene. These can be useful for skin maintenance, resilience and protection.” Says Lynee Ziehlke from Australian Macadamias.
Here are the 7 Major facts (and we have plenty more) that make Macadamia Oil our "go-to" oil:
- At 2-3 on the Comedogenic scale - Macadamia Oil is a light and highly moisturising oil that will not clog your pores but aid our skin's absorption of the other fine extracts in the Seashanty range.
- As a hypoallergenic, Macadamia Oil helps reduce inflammation and redness.
- It is a great natural, fragrant free make-up remover. Rub a small amount onto your skin and massage as needed before removing with a warm washcloth.
- Hydration, hydration, hydration! Macadamia Oil contains almost every hydrating ingredient our skin needs to keep hydrated and regulate our moisture balance. Packed with Vitamin E, which binds water and absorbs into your skin without feeling greasy. These fatty acids that nourish the skin help combat dry skin, which allows us to maintain a gorgeous coastal glow.
- Too much sun? Macadamia Oil contains squalene and oleic acid that both aid cell regeneration, making this oil particularly good for dry or sun harmed skin.
- For our body, Macadamia Oil contains Omega 7 or palmitoleic acid and phytosterols which are all a natural gift to wound healing, wounds, itchiness and redness, scratches and burns. (Editors note. we happily use this on our 3-year-old when she is not in the sun.)
- Finally (and we can go on and on about this amazing extract) Macadamia Oils make application light, easy and hugely absorbent resulting in you getting the absolute most from all the ingredients in your rituals range.
Try for yourself, Macadamia Oil features in all of our Seashanty Organic Rituals range here — we simply love the stuff!
