The power of plants
Tamanu is a majestic tree native to the shores of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. It was revered by the Polynesians who used it to sculpt sacred objects. An oil extracted from the seed is used in cosmetics to nourish and soothe the skin.
Skincare benefits
In cosmetics, organic* tamanu oil—rich in omega 6 and 9 fatty acids—is used to nourish the skin and soothe dryness. *Organic ingredients are produced in accordance with European regulation (CE 2018/848).
