Tamanu Oil is extraordinary at supporting the body’s repair process! Use it for joint salves, muscle oils, scar care, skin soothing blends, and even purifying the skin’s surface.  I have found it to be helpful for easing pain and reducing inflammation. Make it a staple in the cabinet. Tamanu Oil can be helpful in gradually reducing the appearance of scars.

Our wildcrafted Tamanu Oil is cold pressed from the sun-dried nuts of trees in Madagascar. The oil is dark blue or green in color (depending on when it was harvested). Tamanu Oil has a distinctive nutty aroma, and has a thick consistency (can be thinned by mixing with a lighter carrier oil), but it absorbs reasonably well. Upon application, it leaves a very thin barrier that seems to help protect the skin. Tamanu Oil has a 4 year shelf life.

**If you have a nut allergy, consult with your medical practitioner prior to using nut oils, butters or other nut products.  Tamanu has a shelf life of 4 years.
