"Sinking effortlessly into skin, it transfers phytonutrients to the tissues' deepest layers, helping skin retain moisture and replenish elasticity. Brilliantly beneficial to skin with its abundance of phenolic compounds, nutrients, vitamin E tocopherols, jojoba lubricates like oil, yet it is actually a liquid plant wax, so it will not go rancid, which effectively eliminates free radicals from your skincare." - Nadine Artemis Macadamia Nut Oil is loaded with the lipid Squalene, keeping your skin hydrated and nourished. Squalene maintains the fluidity of cell membranes which is crucial to the outer layer of the skin. Also, rich in Palmitoleic acid and Oleic Acid which help the skin cells known as keratinocytes to produce keratin in the outer most layer of the skin. Like collagen, keratin is a protein necessary for healthy skin! Babassu Oil locks in moisture, keeping your skin plump and smooth!
