Skin Care: Moisturizers, creams, serums, facial oils, body oils, and lip care products.
Hair Care: Hair oils, conditioners, masks, and scalp treatments for conditioning and shine.

Skin Barrier Support: Its fatty acid profile closely resembles skin lipids, which can help support the skin's natural barrier function and improve hydration by reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
Emollient & Conditioning: Provides immediate softening and smoothness to skin and hair, improving texture and manageability.
Antioxidant Contribution: Naturally occurring Vitamin E and other components may help protect the oil itself and contribute to the formula's stability against environmental oxidative factors.
Carrier & Penetration Enhancer: Can act as an effective carrier for other lipophilic active ingredients, potentially aiding their delivery.
