Tamanu oil: a Polynesian tradition-inspired comfort skincare staple
Tamanu (Calophyllum inophyllum) holds a special place in Polynesian heritage. In modern cosmetics, tamanu oil is appreciated as a targeted “support” oil: applied to specific areas when skin feels uncomfortable, looks marked, or needs extra softness after sun, friction, or dryness.
TAMANU SAUVAGE Tamanu Oil leaves a nourishing, protective feel that helps maintain flexibility and comfort. The airless 60 ml (2.03 oz) format is clean and practical, dispensing just the right amount.
How to use: apply a thin layer 1 to 3 times a day, or more if needed, on the areas of concern.
Origin and process: traditionally obtained from the kernel of the fruit, after drying, then pressed to preserve its cosmetic qualities.
