Tamanu

Tamanu oil is used mainly for cosmetic and dermatological purposes. Tamanu oil, scientifically named Calophyllum Inophyllum, marked by a singular smell of nuts, is widely used by indigenous tribes in the Pacific regions.

The sacred Tamanu tree with outstanding healing properties still holds a prominent place in local medicine.

Since the 1950s, studies have demonstrated the regenerating, healing, protective, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of Tamanu oil.
