ORIGINS OF MARULA OIL
With a rich heritage in African culture, Marula Oil comes from the Marula Tree (Sclerocarya birrea), revered as “The king of African trees.” This large indigenous plant is related to mango, pistachio, and cashew trees.
Extracted from the fruit of the female Marula tree, the oblong fruits feature a leathery yellow exterior encompassing a white, fibrous flesh surrounding the seed.
Fun fact: Elephants are known to consume the sun-ripened fruit of the marula tree, which undergoes fermentation and develops an alcoholic composition, inspiring the brand name Drunk Elephant.

What makes Rosehip Oil so effective for hydration and elasticity?
Rich in essential fatty acids (like linoleic and oleic acid) and antioxidants (including vitamins A and C), Rosehip Oil replenishes moisture, repairs the skin barrier, and boosts skin elasticity.

Are Marula and Rosehip Oils safe for sensitive skin?
- Marula oil is generally safe for sensitive skin due to its lightweight, non-comedogenic nature, meaning it won’t clog pores or cause irritation.
- Rosehip oil is also well-tolerated by sensitive skin, although individuals with highly reactive skin may experience irritation. A patch test is recommended to ensure compatibility. Both oils are gentle and have soothing properties, making them excellent options for calming inflammation.
