Macadamia Oil – REGENERATING | ANTI-AGEING | LIGHTWEIGHT | AUSTRALIAN NATIVE
Macadamia nuts trees are native to Australia and they’re considered the world’s finest nuts. The chemical profile of Macadamia Oil is very similar to human sebum so is absorbed easily into the skin without leaving a greasy feeling, this makes Macadamia Oil suitable for all skin types and specially beneficial for dry and mature skin.
Macadamia Oil is a desirable ingredient in anti-aging skincare due to its high content of palmitoleic acid, which is known for: helping rejuvenate skin cells, slow the signs of ageing and has been used to improve the appearance of scars, sunburn and other minor skin irritations. Young skin is rich in natural Palmitoleic acid but this decreases with age, hence contributing to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
In addition, macadamia nut oil is high in monounsaturated fatty acids, including: Oleic acid, Linoleic acid and Phytosterols. Oleic acid gives Macadamia Oil fantastic regeneration and moisturising properties, while Linoleic acid helps to prevent trans epidermal water loss from the skin's delicate tissues. Phytosterols, are the building blocks of our cell membrane and help to reduce itchiness and inflammation.
Miod skincare uses only locally sourced, certified organic and cold pressed Macadamia Oil as a base for many of their high quality and effective skincare products, including Miod Extra hydrating balm, Miod Revitalising Face Cream and Miod Light Face Cream. Miod skincare is the perfect example of Australian small business we can support, and one of the reasons we selected them to be featured in AMORGANICA!
