Cold pressed from community traded Kalahari watermelon seeds, this oil is extracted by pounding the seeds by hand in wooden bowls. It is a light oil & rapidly absorbed by the skin. Its neutrality makes it a perfect oil to blend for body or facial oils being effective on greasy skin types. The high content of omega acids within the oil assist in the removal of excess sebum within the skin ensuring the skin is cleansed. This oil is good for balancing oil production, while being restorative & nourishing in action. Its lightness makes it lovely to use as a bath, baby or massage oil base. Watermelon oil is a natural moisturiser & particularly helpful for oily skin conditions.
What is Community Trade?
Our african oils are produced through a community trade programme, which focuses on co-operatives & womens associations producing goods that prove viable to benefit their community. These small co-operatives operate in very dry, rural parts of Africa, where there are often no other way of making a living.This special oil is coldpressed from the seeds of the watermelon & community traded with African villagers to provide them with a sustainable income.
