Baobab is an emollient loved by those with inflamed, sensitive and mature skin. Often used as a substitute for botanical butters but is considerably lighter to the skin. It is a warm yellow liquid that is mild in odour. It may be used to treat skin conditions and in hair care as it is soothing and moisturizing. Useful for mature and dry skin types. It has emollient, regenerative, and toning qualities. It has a medium to slow absorption rate, which retains moisture on the skin while allowing the pores to breathe.
Extraction Method: Cold pressed, filtered
Shelf Life: Up to 18 months after opening, as long as properly stored.
Storage: Always keep tightly sealed in a cool, dark place. Heat, oxygen, and light degrade the product.
Can be used at 100%, dilution. It works particularly well in an 85-90% dilution with another oil that is more fluid, such as calendula, grapeseed or sweet almond oil.
Goes Well With: Blends and/or single note essential oils, CO2 extracts, and absolutes.
