🌱 Avocado Oil: Long cherished by the Aztecs and indigenous people of Central America, avocado oil was traditionally used to protect the skin from drying winds and to promote hair growth. Extracted from the pulp of the avocado fruit, this oil is renowned for its skin-softening and protective properties. It also aids in cellular regeneration, making it a popular ingredient in anti-aging formulations. With regular use, avocado oil enhances the skin's elasticity, keeping it youthful and supple.
🌿 Botanical Information:
- Origin: The avocado, native to Central America, belongs to the Lauraceae family. It is now widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions, such as Kenya, with over 200 known varieties.
- Tree Characteristics: The avocado tree grows between 5 to 15 meters tall, with a gray, fissured bark and a broad, dense canopy. Its leaves are evergreen, simple, oval, and glossy dark green. The tree produces a large brown seed surrounded by the fruit, from which the oil is extracted. The pulp, making up 60-75% of the fruit, contains a high oil content (5-30%, depending on the variety), while the seed contains less than 2% oil.
🏭 Manufacturing Process:
- ECOCert & Organic Fair Trade Certified: Ensuring sustainable and ethical production practices.
- Extraction Process: Avocados are sorted, cleaned, and chilled for 7 days. After a second wash, the skin and seed are separated from the pulp, which is then crushed and mixed. The oil is extracted using a centrifuge press and is decanted at 15°C.
