What is Tamanu oil?

L'tamanu oil sound familiar? Maybe because it's known by various nicknames, such as "the sacred oil", "the oil of a thousand virtues" or "the green gold of the Pacific". You don't know any of these nicknames? That's okay, we'll tell you a little more about this oil. It's important to know that this oil is highly reputed, particularly in traditional Polynesian medicine. It was used in the same way as monoi oil, which also has benefits for the body. Tamanu oil is simply a vegetable oil extracted from a single fruit known as Calophyllum Inophyllum. Of course, this is the Latin name: the fruit is better known to locals as Tamanu or Ati.

It's a rather thick oil, light or dark green in color, depending on how it's extracted. It has an intoxicating nutty scent, which is not unpleasant. It should be noted, however, that it is not an edible oil, but has incredible healing benefits. It's also an oil that solidifies below 25 degrees, just like monoi.

The virtues of Tamanu oil for the skin!

One of the most impressive virtues of Tamanu oil is that it is anti-aging. So there's no need to buy overpriced creams from pharmaceutical laboratories, for example. And with good reason: numerous studies have been carried out on this oil. In fact, it really does have the power to regenerate the skin, which is quite impressive, we must admit! It also enables collagen to be produced in greater quantities.

Not to mention that this oil not only helps maintain skin elasticity, but also seals in moisture. It also helps to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, which is quite beneficial if you're starting to get them. It's also an oil that fights inflammation and skin discomfort, such as eczema. You can use it undiluted, but only in small doses. However, you can also use it with another vegetable oil. Don't forget to do a test to find out whether you can tolerate this type of oil. In conclusion, Tamanu oil is very important for the skin. In fact, it has many impressive benefits. If you'd like to use it, you're more than welcome to buy some and try it out!
