Calophyllum Inophyllum Seed Oil

Tamanu Oil

What is Calophyllum Inophyllum Seed Oil?

Tamanu oil is nature's medicine cabinet in a bottle—a deep green miracle worker from the South Pacific used for generations to heal everything from minor wounds to serious skin conditions. Cold-pressed from sun-dried nuts of the tamanu tree, this oil transforms from thick and nutty to a light, absorbable texture when warmed between fingertips. Think of it as sending in a specialized healing team armed with unique compounds like calophyllolide that target inflammation, bacteria, and damaged tissue. It's the skincare equivalent of having a traditional island healer at your service—addressing acne, scars, stretch marks, and sun damage through a complex blend of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative actions. For troubled skin seeking a natural solution with a centuries-old track record, tamanu oil delivers visible improvement where many modern alternatives have failed.
