Babassu oil is also known as Babassu “butter” because it is solid at room temperature, but melts quickly on contact with the body. Its consistency and properties are similar to those of coconut oil.

Babassu is a palm tree native to Amazonia and also found as far away as Florida.

This very robust tree can grow to a height of 20 metres and have up to 500 nuts measuring between 6 and 12 cm. The seeds contained in these nuts are pressed and give the Babassu oil.  The Mayans have been using it for centuries as a foodstuff.  It is still used today in indigenous cosmetics.

Very rich in lauric acid, this oil has exceptional penetrating properties and is non-comedogenic. Very mild, it is also highly emollient and suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive.

Ideas

Apply babassu oil before washing your hair. It will relieve dry hair. After applying and washing the oil, your hair will be shiny.

Forget buying chemical-laden lip balm. Instead, mix babassu oil with shea butter and apply to your lips. You’ll find that chapped lips disappear and you get sexy, soft lips that will be the focus of all eyes.

It’s an excellent carrier oil that you can mix with jojoba oil or shea butter for example.

STORAGE CONDITIONS

Keep it in the original bottle, away from air and light. It is also advisable to store at a temperature below 25C

    I used this Babassu Oil as an alternative to Coconut Oil, together with some Sweet Almond Oil to make a nourishing, whipped mango body butter. It worked perfectly – I highly recommend.
