PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Organic Unrefined Baobab Carrier Oil is a premium botanical oil extracted from the seeds of the African Baobab Tree (Adansonia digitata) through a gentle cold-pressing process. This minimally processed oil retains its naturally occurring fatty acids and beneficial compounds, producing a rich, golden-coloured liquid with a subtle, earthy aroma. Its nourishing composition makes it an excellent ingredient for skincare, haircare, and personal care formulations.
