CALOPHYLLA OIL
Softening, nourishing, purifying!
Calophylla vegetable oil, called Tamanu by the Tahitians, is a real treasure for the skin. This tropical tree contains a kernel which, after drying and ripening in the sun, yields a thick, green oil. This oil, with its distinctive scent and colour, is full of virtues. To take full advantage of Calophylla oil's properties, we recommend mixing it with another oil to enhance its penetrating power. Its purifying action helps to regenerate the skin while combating imperfections. Skin regains suppleness and elasticity. Calophylla oil is also used to create soaps, massage oils, and anti-aging treatments. It is also a massage oil with circulatory properties, enabling us to create destressing treatments for heavy legs.
