How to Use This Product

Tamanu Oil – 50ml is primarily used as a carrier or base oil. To use it in aromatherapy, you can dilute a few drops of your favorite essential oils into a small amount of this oil before applying it to the skin. Because of its thick consistency and rich lipid content, a little goes a long way. It can be applied directly to dry areas of the skin to help lock in moisture or mixed into existing lotions and serums to boost their hydrating properties. For those who find the natural scent too strong, it can be blended with other lighter carrier oils to create a more balanced aromatic experience. Always store the bottle in a cool, dark place to preserve the quality of the fatty acids over time.
