Palm Kernel Oil

Palm Kernel Oil (Cosmetic Grade) is a lightweight, semi-solid oil extracted from the kernel of the oil palm fruit. It is rich in medium-chain fatty acids such as lauric and myristic acid, known for their nourishing, cleansing, and protective benefits for both skin and hair.

This oil is refined for cosmetic use only, making it ideal for soaps, lotions, creams, hair care products, and DIY skincare. It absorbs easily, leaving skin soft without feeling greasy.
