Organic Refined Babassu Oil – The lightweight care alternative for velvety-soft skin  Discover the secret of the babassu palm: Our refined organic babassu oil is an exceptional plant-based oil that impresses with its unique texture and deep-acting properties. It is NATRUE-compliant and COSMOS-certified. While many oils feel heavy on the skin, babassu oil offers a solution for anyone seeking intensive care without a greasy shine. What makes it special: Cooling sensation and rapid absorption Babassu oil has a fascinating quality: as soon as it touches the skin, it melts gently and creates a mild cooling effect.   Specialist for problem skin: Thanks to its high content of lauric and myristic acids, it is an ideal choice for caring for eczema-prone, itchy, dry, or inflamed skin.  Moisture without heaviness: It is perfect for skin conditions that urgently need moisture but cannot tolerate additional, heavy oils.  The "velvet feel": The oil absorbs extremely quickly, leaves no unpleasant greasy film, and instead gives the skin a noticeably soft, matte finish.   A versatile all-rounder for DIY skincare Whether in classic skincare formulations or soap making, babassu oil is indispensable:  In creams & lotions: Ideal for lightweight face creams, body lotions, and lip balms.  In soap making: As a base oil, it creates a particularly creamy, rich lather and gives the soap bar a smooth, premium texture.  For hair care: In shampoo bars, it works wonders on dry, damaged hair and nourishes the scalp.
