WELCOME TO R&R SKINCARE
The Baobab Tree aka the tree of life is indigenous to parts of Africa and Australia and lives for over 3,000 years! The super oil, which is derived from baobab fruit seeds, is full of goodness - from vitamins to omega fatty acids and so much more.
Read on to find out why your skin will thank you for using this wonder product…
- Vitamin C
The Baobab fruit is said to contain 7 times as much Vitamin C strength than other citrus fruits. Vitamin C is essential for the skin – it promotes radiance and can help reduce the appearance of dark spots.
- Vitamin B
Baobab is filled with many B vitamins including Biotin, which helps to enhance your natural complexion and creates a healthy skin surface.
Fun fact… when your body is experiencing a vitamin B deficiency, you are more likely to get unwanted blemishes, dry skin and rashes.
- Omega 3, 6 & 9
Omega rich fatty acids help to nourish skin. They regulate oil production, hydration levels and reduce signs of ageing. Baobab Oil is a natural anti-ageing agent which we LOVE!
- Collagen
Collagen is important for our bodies as it supports elasticity of skin – keeping it plump and young. As we get older, our body’s collagen production slows down significantly. Baobab oil fights the breakdown of collagen by locking in the moisture that helps promote healthy collagen production.

What the science says…
Baobab oil is considered an excellent oil to improve skin barrier function by preventing reduced TEWL (Trans epidermal water loss) that occurs as a result of an impaired barrier, due to its high saturated and unsaturated fatty acid content (Kamatou et al., 2011).
