Rainforests are often called the "pharmacy of the planet," as a quarter of all modern medicines are based on tropical plants. Many of these plants also have unique antioxidant properties, making them exceptionally nourishing and beneficial in skincare.

Abundant rainfall combined with warmth creates a unique habitat for plants, insects, birds, and many other animals. Over millions of years of evolution, rainforest plants have developed unique characteristics due to their extraordinary conditions. Rainforests also act as the "lungs of the Earth," as they absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen.

Through your cosmetic choices, you can support the vitality of rainforests. Local people and indigenous communities do not cut down forests out of malice but because they face only two options for their livelihood: cutting down rainforests for farmland or living traditionally by collecting valuable and unique nuts, mushrooms, fruits, and other gifts from the forest.

Many of these rainforest treasures can be used as raw materials in cosmetics to create unique skincare products. Not a single tree needs to be cut down for these products, and at the same time, we encourage local people to maintain their ecological way of life. By purchasing and using rainforest products, we help prevent the destruction of rainforests.

As a nut oil, kukui nut oil is exceptionally lightweight and absorbs well into the skin while still providing deep hydration. Its secret lies in its skin-friendly fatty acids and high levels of vitamins A and E. It is rich in linoleic and alpha-linolenic acids, with only a small amount of greasy oleic acid. The skin does not feel oily but instead soft and silky. Thanks to the balanced ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids and its natural antimicrobial properties, it is suitable for all skin types and can also help with eczema and acne.

The kukui nut tree is a tropical rainforest tree. Its exact origin is not fully known, as humans have carried it wherever they have settled. The earliest evidence of the tree and its nuts being used dates back 13,000 years to the tropical islands of Southeast Asia.

Indigenous peoples have prepared food from the nuts by roasting and steaming them, but in Hawaii, the kukui tree has also held exceptional spiritual and religious significance. In Hawaii, the skin-healing properties of kukui nut oil were discovered early on, and it has been used as part of religious rituals as well.

Massage a few drops of facial oil onto cleansed skin as the final step of your skincare routine. Allow the oil serum to fully absorb before applying makeup or sunscreen.
