FunctionBarrier Lipid

What it is — Adansonia Digitata (Baobab) Seed Oil (also listed as Adansonia Digitata Seed Oil), pressed from the seeds of the baobab tree, a well-established plant source.

What it does — It is commonly used as a nourishing lipid to help reinforce the skin's moisture barrier and soften the surface, leaving a conditioned feel.

Typical use — Found in facial oils, moisturizers, balms and hair products where a richer, replenishing oil is wanted.

Who it suits / good to know — Often favored by dry or mature skin and for hair ends; those who prefer very light textures may use it sparingly.

Safety — Rated low risk and generally well tolerated. This is general information, not medical advice; patch-test first if you have known seed- or nut-oil sensitivities.
