Mongongo Oil - Virgin Organic
| Cat# | NPO-093 |
| Description | Organic Mongongo Oil, commonly referred to as Manketti oil, is cold-pressed extracted from the nut of the Schinziophyton rautanenii, the mongongo or manketti tree, native to southern Africa. This mongongo oil variety is virgin, meaning unrefined, carrying a characteristic aroma and flavor profile. Virgin organic manketti or mongongo oil is sought after in the cosmetic and personal-care industry for its linoleic fatty acid content, making this ingredient ideal in topical skin and hair applications. Mongongo oil is a favored ingredient in sunscreen and sun protectant formations for its naturally high content of eleostearic acid, providing protection against UV rays that may cause severe damage to the epidermis. Additional everyday products that often include this exotic African oil are damaged hair treatments, shampoos and conditioners, skin creams, serums, and topical balms. |
