When we talk about powerful, skin-supportive ingredients, virgin mongongo oil deserves a spotlight. Wild-harvested in Namibia and cold-pressed to retain its full nutrient profile, this antioxidant-rich oil offers natural protection and care for skin that faces everyday stressors.
What Is Mongongo Oil?
Extracted from the seeds of the Mongongo tree, this luxurious oil has been used for generations to nourish and shield the skin in dry, sun-exposed environments. Its unique composition — high in linoleic acid and vitamin E — makes it ideal for skin that needs support without heaviness.
Why We Use It
-
Antioxidant Benefits
Rich in vitamin E and polyunsaturated fatty acids, mongongo oil helps fight oxidative stress and supports the skin’s ability to recover from environmental damage. -
Barrier-Boosting Hydration
It locks in moisture and helps maintain the skin’s natural barrier, leaving skin feeling smooth, soft, and resilient. -
