The plant

The named oil comes from the palm kernels of Elaeis oleifera.

What's in it

Fatty acids—the natural components of oils contribute to the ingredient’s texture.

Oleic acid

The dominant fatty acid, similar to olive oil.

Palmitic acid

A substantial saturated fraction, typical of palms.

Carotenoids

Present, contributing colour.

Tocopherols and tocotrienols

Vitamin E family compounds.

How it works

Softening care: As a cosmetic emollient, the named oil can smooth the feel of dry skin. Emollient means a substance that softens and smooths the surface. Hair finish: A suitable oil preparation can coat the hair shaft, improving slip and adding a conditioned appearance.

In the tradition

Associated with Central American hair-care traditions.

A cosmetic oil works mainly at the skin or hair surface.

How to use
  1. 1Warm a small amount between the palms and massage into skin or hair as needed.

  3. 3Patch test on a small area before first use.
