INCI: Elaeis Oleifera Kernel Oil

Batana Oil is a rich, cold pressed oil used in intensive hair and skin conditioning routines where a heavier, more cushioning feel is preferred. It is especially popular in pre-shampoo treatments, rich hair oils, and targeted body care for very dry-feeling areas. This is an oil-soluble ingredient, not a water-soluble one, and it may partially solidify in cooler temperatures because of its naturally rich character. The oil is derived from palm (Elaeis oleifera) and is best suited to cosmetic use.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to stock Batana Oil because it brings a deeply rich, concentrated feel that works especially well in protective hair and body care routines. It suits a more intensive style of natural care, and it gives makers a distinctive palm-derived oil that can be used neat or softened with lighter carriers.

Q: Why does Batana Oil sometimes feel semi-solid?
A: Its naturally rich profile can cause it to thicken or partially solidify in cooler temperatures.

Q: Can Batana Oil be blended with lighter oils?
A: Yes. Pairing it with lighter carriers can improve spread and reduce the overall weight of the blend.

Q: Is Batana Oil better suited to hair or skin?
A: It works for both, but it is especially useful where a richer, more protective feel is wanted.
