Pure Marula Oil 50ML

Marula oil is highly nutritious, containing a large proportion of mono-unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin C and E, and antioxidants. It absorbs quickly and is highly moisturizing with emollient properties. The amino acids found in marula oil (L-arginine and glutamic acid) help restore hydration and have anti-aging properties. And since marula oil contains vitamins C and E, it earns major beauty snaps for neutralizing free radicals. Marula oil is a clear, pale, yellowish-brown colour and has a pleasant nutty aroma. The oil is classified as medium rich and is silky to the touch with an excellent ‘slip factor’ making it ideal massage oil.

Not recommended for those with adult acne due to its high level of oleic acid.

The name Marula comes from Setswana for a favourite haunt of barbets and woodpeckers, who make their nests in the soft wood. 

Marula is widely distributed at low and medium altitudes in open woodlands across Zimbabwe with more than 3million trees recorded.
