IntegriLIPID Macadamia Nut Oil
Short Description:
The major fatty acids of macadamia nut oil are oleic acid (about 85%) and palmitoleic acid (about 20%). Unsaponifiables constitute less than 1% of the oil. Macadamia oil has a very low concentration of tocopherols and is therefore relatively unstable considering its low iodine value. Its major feature is the similarity of its fatty acid composition with that of sebum.
It has been found that as the aging process proceeds, the level of palmitoleic acid in the skin gradually drops. The application of macadamia nut oil is believed to replenish the palmitoleic acid in mature skin. It is one of the most penetrating oils know, and therefore often called a “vanishing oil” because of its rapid absorption by the skin. Thus making it a valuable component in massage creams, muscle rubs and other products where lubrication and penetration are essential. Shelf Life: 1 year.
