Bio Plum Seed Oil + White Copal is a luxurious botanical blend combining the soft, naturally sweet character of plum kernel oil with the warm, resinous depth of white copal.
Plum seed oil is valued for its silky texture and lightweight emollient properties, making it an excellent choice for facial oils, hair serums, body treatments, balms, and premium cosmetic formulations. The addition of white copal gives the blend a distinctive aromatic profile with soft resinous, woody, and slightly balsamic nuances.
This oil absorbs smoothly into the skin and helps leave it feeling soft, conditioned, and supple without an excessively heavy finish. In haircare products, it can help improve shine, manageability, and the appearance of dry or damaged hair.
