BAOBAB OIL
ORIGINS
The baobab tree has an exceptional lifetime of nearly 2000 years. It is generally very massive and can reach 25 meters in height and more than 12 meters in circumference. Its name comes from the Arabic bu hibab, fruit with many seeds. Indeed, each of its oval fruits often contains several hundred seeds. Baobab oil is an oil obtained by cold pressing of baobab seeds. This extraction has a yield of about 4% but it allows to preserve the natural qualities of this exceptional oil.
