Common Uses

Haircare:
A popular traditional use of kukui nut oil is to apply it to the hair in the form of a hair mask, mixing it in with shampoos or conditioners, or simply massaging it into the scalp and tips of the hair. The linoleic and linolenic fatty acids found in this oil are able to coat the hair, delivering key nutrients, moisturizing it, preventing breakage, and even improving the appearance and luster of hair.

Skincare:
As kukui nut oil penetrates the skin quickly and does not leave a greasy feeling it is used to heal skin problems like dryness, eczema, psoriasis and other severe skin problems. It can also be used for scars and reducing the appearance of stretch marks as it reverses the damage done to the skin and leaves it smooth, radiant and supple.
