The oil is fragrance free, additive free, and is the most stable natural oil with a shelf life of 2yrs.

The oil is very concentrated, and is easily absorbed into the skin leaving it soft and silky. The products are based on oil produced from the kernels of the nut of the marula fruit from the marula tree, the King of African trees, which is indigenous to Swaziland. The oil is rich in oleic acid, vitamin E and natural antioxidants and has been used for centuries in Swaziland to beautify and heal the skin. It can be used wherever dry skin occurs, face, hands, feet, and body.
