Mode of action
for the body

Babassu oil is characterized by a high content of vitamin E, which protects the skin from free radicals - it thus acts as an anti-aging booster. In addition contains Babassu oil over 80 percent saturated fatty acids, such as lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, caprylic acid and capric acid, among others.
Lauric acid has an antimicrobial/anti-inflammatory effect and thus protects against bacteria, viruses and fungal infections.
Myristic acid has an antimicrobial/anti-inflammatory effect and softens the skin.
Palmitic acid is a component of the skin's own acid mantle. As the palmitic acid content of the skin degrades over the years, the oil nourishes the skin by supplying this fatty acid from the outside.
Caprylic and capric acids have a pronounced spreading ability and are thus well and easily absorbed by the skin.
In addition, the Babassu oil unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid or oleic acid.
While linoleic acid is good for irritated and dry skin, oleic acid promotes wound healing and provides a moisture boost.
