This oil contains a lot of palmitoleic acid, which has strong antioxidant properties and helps the natural turnover of cells and counteract the effects of free radicals. Thanks to its emollient and regenerating properties, it is perfect for restoring hydration and softness to dry and irritated skin, or against stretch marks, scars and skin irritations. Like other oils, such as argan oil, it is non-comedogenic and can also be used on oily or combination skin.

It is also useful in anti-cellulite treatments; it is restructuring and sebum-balancing for oily and damaged hair, it works as an anti-frizz for all hair types and is also used in the treatment of weak nails.
