Vanuatu is home to one of the best kept skin care secrets in the world - tamanu oil.

This miracle oil has been used for centuries by Native Ni Vanatu as a tropical first aid to promote the formation  of healthy new skin cells.

This magical oil is made from the nuts of the Tamanu Tree is regarded by many as the best in the world. It is only after the fruit of the Tamanu Tree have fallen to the ground naturally that the nuts are collected and dried. Consequently, there is no negative impact on the trees themselves.

Tamanu oil possesses the ability to promote the growth of new tissue, thereby accelerating wound healing and growth of new skin. This process is called cicatrization. 

In Pacific Island folk medicine this oil is applied liberally to every kind of skin malady imaginable such as cuts, scrapes, burns, insect bites, acne, psoriasis, diabetic ulcers, sunburn, dry and/or scaly skin, blisters, eczema, and herpes sores such as cold sores. It can eliminate or greatly reduce scarring from acne, burns and other skin trauma. The Polynesian natives even use it to reduce foot and body odor. The antibiotic properties as well as anti inflammatory and antioxidant properties in it are helpful for looking younger.

Tamanu oil demonstrates antioxidant properties, specifically inhibiting lipid peroxidation (the break down of lipids by oxidation). Cell membranes are composed of lipids; therefore, tamanu oil inhibits oxidative damage to the skin. Although the oil itself is thick and rich, it is completely absorbed by the skin leaving no oily residue or greasy feel. It has a mild and pleasing aroma and a luxurious feel.

Tamanu oil benefits many skin problems such as; acne, psoriasis, eczema, rosacea and rashes, and may just be the answer. Especially if you have tried other creams etc, and found nothing has really helped.

The benefits of tamanu oil are becoming more and more widely known, and this fantastic oil is changing many people’s lives.

These and other components of Tamanu oil, including anti-inflammatory coumarins, account for some of the oil's beneficial activity.
