INCI: Adansonia digitata seed oil

Essentially Natural Baobab Oil - Cold Pressed is a 100% natural carrier oil pressed from the seeds of the baobab tree. Its silky texture, light golden colour and soft nutty aroma make it a beautiful choice for nourishing face oils, body blends and hair treatments. It absorbs comfortably while leaving skin and hair feeling soft, supple and conditioned, making it especially appealing when a richer oil is wanted without an overly heavy finish.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to offer Baobab Oil because it brings together nourishing softness and an elegant, easy-to-use skin feel. It works equally well as a simple everyday oil or as the botanical base of a more personalised skincare, massage or haircare blend.

This product is certified: Vegan and Beauty Without Cruelty.

Great facial oil

I've been using it on my face before moisturizer in the evening and my skin is loving it. No breakouts. Acne marks fading

Hi there Adelaide,

Thank you so much for your lovely review!

Wonderfully lightweight

Recently I've incorporated Baobab oil in lip oils and lotion bars and One of the things I love most about baobab oil is its lightweight texture that absorbs effortlessly into the skin without feeling greasy. It's like a drink of water for my skin, instantly quenching its thirst and leaving behind a radiant glow.

The Best Boabab Oil

I love how naturally extracted it is, because all the boabab's nutrients aren't lost and I can feel them on my skin. It has a noticable rubber-or-elastic like scent buy not highly aromatic. It's the best oil for sun protection and moisture lock on the skin - very emollient like marulo and light on the face

Wonderful oil

The oil itself is fabulous. Delivery great, nicely packaged and protected.
The topper of the bottle (the dropper air-vent thing) hardly works though, had to take it off to get anything out.

Miracle

The very best oil I've ever used. It contains almost all vitamins that our hair requires.
It also seems very skin friendly, absorbing fast and rehydrates quickly.
