If you wash and wash your face but still struggle with acne or oily skin, then your skin might need more moisture. But before you go and rub just any lotion all over your face, let me introduce you to Nangai Oil, the exotic, magic moisturizer you may never have heard of.
The foundation of great makeup is great skin. And to get great skin, you need a great skincare routine. But that means more than just washing your face every day.
A great skincare routine should do three things: cleanse, hydrate, and moisturize. Yes, hydration and moisture are two separate goals! And not all moisturizing products add hydration, just like not all hydrating products are also moisturizing.
Nangai oil is a fantastic moisturizer that I use every day. I use it every morning and evening, after I cleanse my face but before I add Climate Control (my daily hydrating product).
What is Nangai Oil?
Nangai oil comes from the nuts of the Nangai palm tree, which is native to the island of Vanuatu in the South Pacific. Why is it so special? It is special because it has a high concentration of beneficial fatty acids and vitamins but is not heavy like other oils. This makes it an excellent facial moisturizer because it is so easy for your skin to absorb.

What does Nangai Oil do?
Nangai oil is a great option for those who are looking for a natural skincare product that hydrates, soothes, slows aging, improves elasticity, and won’t clog your pores. Unlike many commercial skincare products, it is free from harsh chemicals and synthetic ingredients, making it a great choice for those who are sensitive to these types of ingredients.
Hydrates
It is rich in fatty acids, which help to lock in moisture and keep the skin feeling soft and smooth. This is especially beneficial for those with dry or mature skin, as it can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Soothes
It has been known to soothe sunburns and sun damage, making it a great remedy for treating sunburns and other forms of sun damage. The oil’s anti-inflammatory properties can help to reduce redness and inflammation, while its moisturizing properties can help to keep the skin hydrated and soothed.
Anti-Aging
It has anti-aging benefits. The oil is rich in antioxidants, which help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals can make the skin age faster than it should, which can lead to wrinkles and fine lines. The antioxidants found in Nangai oil can help to reduce the appearance of these signs of aging and keep the skin looking youthful.
Won’t Clog Pores
It is also non-comedogenic, which means it won’t clog your pores and cause acne or other skin problems. This makes it a great option for those with oily or acne-prone skin, as it can be used as a moisturizer without worrying about causing further breakouts.
What Makes Nangai Oil so great for your skin?
Rich in Vitamins
In addition to being a great moisturizer, Nangai oil also has a number of other benefits for the skin. For example, the oil is rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E and zinc. These nutrients are essential for healthy skin, as they help to keep the skin strong and elastic and can also help to reduce the appearance of scars and blemishes.
Rich in Essential Fatty Acids
Nangai oil is also a great option for those who are looking to improve the overall health and appearance of their skin. Essential fatty acids are important for keeping the skin’s barrier function in good shape, and Nangai oil has a lot of them. This can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and can also help to prevent the skin from becoming dry and flaky.
Easily Absorbed Daily Moisturizer
It is easily absorbed by the skin. Unlike some other oils, Nangai oil is not greasy or heavy, which means that it can be used as a daily moisturizer without leaving the skin feeling oily or weighed down. This makes it a great option for those who are looking for a lightweight, easily absorbed moisturizer.
Versatile
Nangai oil is also versatile and can be used in a variety of ways. It can be used as a daily moisturizer, as a treatment for dry or damaged skin, or as a hair conditioner. It can also be added to your favorite lotion or cream for an extra boost of hydration.
Eco-Friendly
Lastly, it is also a sustainable and eco-friendly choice. The Nangai Palm trees are not genetically modified, and the trees are not being cut down. The oil is extracted from the nuts that fall naturally from the tree. It’s a good way to avoid using commercial skin care products that are known to hurt the environment.
In conclusion, Nangai oil is a natural, eco-friendly way to care for your skin that has many benefits. It moisturizes, it soothes, it won’t cause acne, and it’s packed with vitamins and minerals that are essential for healthy skin. Plus, it’s easily absorbed, making it the perfect addition to your skincare routine. Nangai oil is a great natural addition to other SeneGence skincare and makeup products.
