Thousands of years ago the natives of the pacific saw a big tree growing near the ocean. They soon found that the nuts contained a special oil, they used the oil to protect their skin from the hot sun, humidity and sea breeze.

There is a very small stock Tamanu-Oil™ in the world because it can be obtained only in such a small area. No less than 100 kilograms Tamanu fruit (the full harvest of one tree per year) is needed to produce just 5 kilo grams of Tamanu-Oil.

Tamanu-Oil is the most effective, natural skin healing oil in the world for topical use. Tamanu-Oil™ is produced from fruits (nuts) of Tamanu-trees.

 Function of Tamanu-Oil™ according to Folk medicine :
There are so many active ingredients found in the pure and original Tamanu-Oil™ that explain why Tamanu-Oil™ works so well for skin problems and seems to be good for the healing of wounds, also when you suffer from acne or greasy hair.
One of the components is calophyllolide, what appears to be anti-inflammatory. Other elements of the oil appears to work antibacterial. The oil is also rich in oil and linolenic acids, which moisturise and soften skin, but does not make your skin oily, which is perfect when you suffer from acne.
Everyone knows that the human skin is the largest organ of our organ system. Several damaged skin will try to heal by forming scar tissue. This is often discoloured and de-pigmented. Tamanu-Oil™ effectively increase the healing process by penetrating deep into the underlying connective tissues of the skin and promoting the growth of new skin tissue. Traditionally the oil has been used to treat rheumatism, inflammation and promote healing of scars. The oil has also been topically applied to the neck area to threat sore throat.
Medical research has shown that Tamanu-Oil™ has antibacterial and antiviral properties and promote the formation of new tissue and cell healing.

Stay away from black colored, neon yellow Tamanu Oil.

None of these are the real deal and this is one of the explanations why they are so cheap in the market. Unfortunately there is a lot of rubbish oil coming out of several countries claiming the original Tamanu Oil. When you buy them you have no idea, but on the long term you will notice the difference.
For example the Black Tamanu-Oil, this occurs in the process where the Tamanu Nuts have been thrown into the fire to try and speed up the curing process. There is only one process for the original Tamanu0-Oil.
Any other processes seriously diminishes its natural, skin-healing and anti-aging properties.
The same with the neon yellow Tamanu Oil that has been either diluted down with a cheap carrier oil or in some cases, the product has been put through a chemical filtering process. Yes the oil may be a lighter oil but again the product has been chemically stripped of some of its natural components making it inferior and much less effective. While the original pure Tamanu-Oil is expensive and proven effective for centuries by local medicals. It remains difficult to understand the difference when you buying cheaper Tamanu-Oil, but if you suffer from skin conditions you should only try the original Tamanu-Oil which comes from Tamanu-Europe.     Authenticity and purity is maintained during the entire process.
All ingredients are subjected to a strict quality control and assayed by GCMS and includes a COA. The original Tamanu-Oil™ is no standard cosmetic product, it has a natural woody or nutty smelling, tinted "green/gold", thick of consistency (depending on the temperature). A few drops easily absorbed into the skin and hair. The oil results in a softer appearance of the skin.
There are many type and undiluted Tamanu-Oil™ in the world claiming to be the best, original and 100% pure. There are even many other species of Calophyllum in the Pacific and tropical Asia, but these tend to be the forest trees rather than coastal species. Studies have shown, that the original Tamanu-Oil™ produces the best strains of Tamanu-Oil™ in the world with its healing properties being extremely powerful.
