Specialty Carrier Oil · Skin, Scalp & Formulation

Organic Tamanu Oil

A deeply nourishing specialty oil treasured throughout the South Pacific for generations. Organic Tamanu Oil is valued for its rich composition, distinctive botanical character, and ability to bring depth to targeted skincare, body-care, scalp, and wellness formulations.

Cold-pressed from the nuts of the tamanu tree, this luxurious oil has a naturally deep green color, earthy aroma, and rich skin feel. It is especially useful when a formulation calls for concentrated conditioning rather than a light, nearly weightless finish.

Rich Botanical Conditioning for Targeted Rituals

Tamanu Oil offers a distinctive sensory experience that sets it apart from lighter carrier oils. Its substantial texture makes it a valuable choice for targeted areas, dry-feeling skin, scalp and beard care, and formulations designed to feel restorative and deeply conditioning.

Because of its natural aroma, color, and richness, many formulators use Tamanu Oil as part of a balanced carrier-oil blend rather than as the entire base. Pairing it with jojoba, argan, meadowfoam, or fractionated coconut oil creates a smoother, lighter application while preserving its botanical character.

How to Use Organic Tamanu Oil

Apply Tamanu Oil sparingly to targeted areas or combine it with lighter carrier oils to create a more balanced texture for facial, body, scalp, beard, and wellness applications.

Targeted Skin Care

Apply one or two drops to clean, slightly damp skin where additional conditioning is desired.

Facial Oil Blends

Combine with jojoba, argan, meadowfoam, or rosehip seed oil for a lighter, more elegant facial blend.

Scalp & Beard Care

Blend into conditioning scalp oils, beard oils, and pre-wash treatments for dry-feeling areas.

Custom Formulations

Incorporate into body oils, balms, salves, massage blends, and other anhydrous botanical creations.

For Formulators

Organic Tamanu Oil is a concentrated specialty carrier best used with intention. Its pronounced color, aroma, and texture can significantly influence the finished product, making it especially useful when developing targeted or premium botanical formulations.

Suggested Applications

  • Targeted facial and body oils
  • Restorative massage blends
  • Balms and salves
  • Body butters and anhydrous creams
  • Scalp and pre-shampoo oils
  • Beard oils and conditioning blends

Formulation Notes

  • Oil-soluble and suitable for anhydrous products
  • Use alone for targeted application or as part of an oil blend
  • Its natural green color may affect the appearance of the finished formulation
  • Its earthy aroma should be considered when developing the final scent profile
  • Evaluate stability, packaging compatibility, and preservation requirements for the complete formula

Pure Intox formulation note: Tamanu Oil is often most elegant when used as a supporting carrier. Pair it with jojoba or meadowfoam for stability and a lighter finish, argan for a luxurious facial or hair blend, or fractionated coconut oil for improved spreadability in massage and body-care products.

Important Use & Safety Information

For external use only. Apply to healthy, intact skin.

  • Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes.
  • Do not apply to broken, severely irritated, or actively inflamed skin.
  • Discontinue use if redness, itching, or irritation occurs.
  • Keep out of reach of children.
  • Perform a patch test before broader use, particularly if you have sensitive skin or known nut allergies.
  • When adding essential oils, follow appropriate dilution and safety guidance for the intended user and application.
  • Store tightly closed in a cool location away from excessive heat and direct sunlight.

Please note: Natural variations in color, aroma, and texture are expected and may differ slightly between botanical batches.
