MORE INFO

Terminalia ferdinandiana, or Kakadu, is a tree native from Australia. It bears small green fruits (2-3 cm) called plums, which resemble miniature pears, each containing 1 kernel/stone. All parts of the Kakadu tree have always been valued by Aboriginal people both for the plums, eaten fresh, as bush food and, for the barks and leaves used in traditional medicine. 

 

Recent research has found that Kakadu plums (the fruit) have record concentrations in vitamin C, remarkably interesting nutritional values, and powerful health beneficial properties: Kakadu plum oil is one the most valued source of gallic and ellagic acids, 2 highly antioxidant natural acids found mostly in fruits and berries such as raspberries and blackberries, but also in Witch Hazel, Tea leaves, Oak bark, and Pomegranate skin.

Mega dose of Vit C

I read about this oil and decided to try it, as i have really sensitive skin. I'm glad i did. I also use it on my hands before going to bed. It smells great and it absorbs well into the skin. This oil is great for those that don't like having an oily feel, left on their skin.

My vitamin c alternative

I've heard a lot about this oil, but I could never find it in South africa, super stoked to have found it here . I have quite sensitive skin and can never find a vitamin c product that didn't cause irritation until now . I used it under my eyes, and my dark circles looked a bit lighter ,and it's only been day 2 of using this . I can't wait to see what my skin looks like in a few months
