Description
Macadamia Carrier Oil gives formulations a smooth, rounded glide with a soft, gently cushioned finish. It feels richer than very light carrier oils, but less dense than heavier materials such as castor or avocado. This makes it useful in body oils, massage blends, creams, balms and hair-care products where comfort and spreadability matter.
Its strength is softness. It helps formulas feel easy to apply, body-friendly and slightly more substantial without becoming immediately heavy. The finish remains noticeable, so it works best where a soft after-feel is wanted. Used too heavily, Macadamia Carrier Oil can make lighter products feel oily, slow to absorb or more coated than intended.
Shelf life:Users can expect a shelf life of 18 months with proper storage conditions (cool, out of direct sunlight). Refrigeration after opening is recommended.
