Beauty grows wild in nature – just as it does in us humans. Wildflowers, herbs, and fruits grow in their natural environment, where nature intended them to thrive, completely untouched by human hands. These plants are exposed to the same harsh conditions as our skin: intense sun, low humidity, temperature changes, and many other stressors.

Wild plants develop differently compared to cultivated ones; they become hardy, resilient, and adaptable to their environment, storing nutrients and antioxidants while developing various healing and complex properties to survive.

Harvesting wild plants is a sustainable, ethical, and environmentally respectful way to source raw materials. It preserves the land from fertilizers and human interference while supporting local communities. These plants are neither sown nor treated and are handpicked from their natural surroundings.

For example, when harvesting fruits, nuts, or mushrooms, the plant itself is not harmed or uprooted. The process is no different from a forest animal nibbling on it while foraging for dinner.

Buriti oil is rich in nutrient-dense unsaturated fatty acids and carotenoids. It has regenerative, skin-softening, and moisturizing properties. As a natural antioxidant loaded with vitamins A and E, buriti oil is perfect for dry, sun-exposed, or eczema-prone skin.

One of the most remarkable features of buriti is its protective ability, as it is the richest natural source of beta-carotene in the world! Thanks to this, the oil protects against free radicals and helps shield the skin from environmental stressors like pollution and UV radiation.

Buriti oil is extracted from the fruits of the buriti tree, which grows in the Amazon rainforest. The buriti tree thrives near wetlands and is commonly referred to as the Tree of Life, playing a vital role in the rainforest ecosystem. The buriti fruits we use are wild-harvested by local communities in a natural and sustainable manner.

Research conducted by Brazil's Institute of Biology has highlighted not only the undeniable health benefits of buriti but also the fact that rural communities harvesting the fruit can combine income generation with the preservation of the species and the rainforest. Buriti oil is still relatively uncommon in Europe, and Usva Cosmetics is the only Finnish company using this miraculous oil as an ingredient in skincare.

Gently massage a small amount of balm onto areas of the skin prone to dryness or fine lines.

The balm can be used as a nourishing all-round cream, effective night cream, or to protect the skin from cold and wind. You can also use Wild Fruit Beauty Balm as a conditioning nail treatment, dewy highlighter or even on sunburned shoulders.

To get the most out of the balm, apply it after a shower or bath when the skin is still slightly damp.
