Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
Locks in moisture
Traditional Use
Used traditionally by indigenous Amazonian peoples for skin and hair conditioning. The oil from the buriti palm has been valued in South American traditional medicine for its high vitamin A and beta-carotene content for skin health.
