Pequi Oil

A Natural Unrefined - Sustainable Product of the Brazilian Amazon Forest

  • Scientific name – Caryocar Braziliense
  • Plant Part – pulp
  • Origin - Brazil
  • Appearance: orange

 

Pequi Pulp Oil is 100% natural, cold-pressed, and dried, with no preservatives, additives, or other chemicals added. It is a wild-harvested product that grows naturally in the Brazilian Amazon Forest without the use of pesticides or fertilizers.

Common Uses – Soaps, body lotions, skincare, hair care, and is ideal for skin creams.

Benefits for Skin and Hair – Pequi oil is deeply nourishing and moisturizing for both skin and hair. It helps to restore the skin's natural barrier, making it ideal for dry, sensitive, or irritated skin. The oil is rich in antioxidants, which protect the skin from environmental damage and premature aging. For hair, Pequi oil helps to smooth and soften, reducing frizz and improving manageability. Its high content of vitamins and fatty acids promotes healthy hair growth and adds shine.

Local communities traditionally use the pulp as an anti-inflammatory and for treating liver disorders. To extract the pulp oil in a traditional way, the pulp mass is gently heated (without water), allowing the oil to melt and be separated from the mass. Both pulp and kernel oil, along with the peel, are used in the manufacturing of soap.

Pequi oil is rich in fatty acids and has a high content of vitamins A, C, and various B vitamins, as well as phytosterols, including sitosterol, stigmasterol, and lanosterol. Squalene and selenium are present at concentrations of 64 mg and 0.7 mg per 100 g, respectively. Pequi oil has a melting point of 98.6°F, identical to human body temperature, making it ideal for skin creams. However, Pequi kernel oil is not very common due to the difficulty in removing the endocarp. 

All our oils, butters, and bioactive products are extracted from plants using chemical-free methods (without the use of chemical reagents or solvents). This Cold Extraction method allows for the production of high-quality products, such as oils, butters, soaps, and herbal extracts, while preserving the bioactive compounds found in the raw materials.

Our products are cruelty-free.

Please note that the product may vary in color, viscosity, smell, and other factors depending on the harvest and local temperature. If the oil is solid, place the bottle in warm water to liquefy.

Pequi Oil has a characteristic smell that may not be pleasant to everyone.
