Sclerocarya Birrea

A silky, fast-absorbing oil from Southern Africa. Rich in oleic acid and antioxidants - adds luxurious slip without heaviness.

Calophyllum Inophyllum

A traditional oil from Southeast Asia and Polynesia, used for centuries to support healthy, resilient-looking skin. Brings depth and nourishment to the blend.
