Macadamia Nut Oil (Macadamia integrifolia) – Cold Pressed

Our Macadamia nut oil cold pressed to retain all the nutritional qualities.

Macadamia oil is high in palmitoleic acid, a mono-unsaturated fatty acid not found in most oils. A substance also found in sebum, this makes macadamia oil perfect for mature skin which can dry as the natural sebum production decreases in age.

This is a very rich thick oil, and as such not commonly used for massage alone. Though a very useful addition to massage blends, especially for those for use on drier skin.

Macadamia Oil is considered beneficial for the skin, as it enhances the skins own restorative and protective properties and helps support the skins ability to heal itself. It is rich in nutrients and essential fatty acids, along with good absorption properties. Historically used to treat scars, sunburn, minor wounds and other skin irritations.

Macadamia Oil has an aroma which combines well with woody aromatherapy essential oils such as Cedarwood and Sandalwood.

The macadamia is an evergreen tree with white to pink and purple flowers, originally native to Australia. Though now it increasingly cultivated commercially in Hawaii and East Africa.
