Escentia Marula Oil - Cold Pressed is a pure cold-pressed carrier oil from Sclerocarya birrea , used in skincare, haircare, and body care formulations where a light but nourishing oil is wanted. It absorbs quickly into the skin, making it a lovely choice for facial oils, massage blends, body oils, and hair care routines without leaving an overly heavy finish. This is a carrier oil, not an essential oil, so it is used as a base oil on its own or to dilute essential oils. Sourced from South Africa, it is especially well suited to products focused on moisture, softness, and a smoother-looking skin feel.
♡ Why we love it: Marula oil has that rare balance of feeling elegant and hardworking at the same time. It glides on beautifully, sinks in quickly, and brings a naturally nourishing touch to both skin and hair care, which makes it a staple in everything from simple facial routines to richer body blends.
