Macadamia Nut Oil

Macadamia nut oil is expeller pressed from the kernels of the macadamia tree’s fruit, yielding a versatile lightweight oil naturally high in palmitoleic and oleic fatty acid content. This variety of Macadamia nut oil is thoroughly refined, yielding a bland, neutral liquid that will not impact the flavor or aroma of an end-product. Macadamia nut oil is relatively stable and resistant to oxidation due to its fatty acid composition with a higher smoke point than a large portion of other vegetable oils. Refined macadamia nut oil exhibits natural emollient properties, making this an excellent ingredient in cosmetic and personal-care formulations. It is easily absorbed into the skin, giving rise in popularity as a carrier oil used in topical skincare product formulations including face serums, lotions, skin creams, and moisturizers. In addition to personal-care applications, macadamia nut oil is sought-after throughout the culinary industry as a preferred cooking oil and added to a variety of sauces, salad dressings, and packaged food items.
