Bio Brazil Nut Seed Oil + White Copal is a luxurious conditioning blend created by combining Brazil nut seed oil with the fresh, luminous, and softly resinous character of white copal.

Brazil nut seed oil is obtained from the seeds of Bertholletia excelsa, a majestic tree native to the Amazon rainforest. The oil is valued for its smooth texture, excellent spreadability, and naturally rich lipid composition. It helps leave the skin feeling soft, supple, and comfortably conditioned while adding shine and manageability to dry, coarse, curly, or textured hair.

White copal contributes a delicate aromatic profile with citrus-like, green, balsamic, softly woody, and incense-inspired nuances. Together, the ingredients create an elegant multipurpose oil suitable for facial and body care, hair treatments, scalp products, massage preparations, grooming formulations, natural perfumery, and aromatic rituals.

Formulation Notes

For lighter facial or hair products, combine it with squalane, jojoba, grapeseed oil, or a lightweight cosmetic ester.

For richer body and hair formulations, combine it with shea, cupuaçu, murumuru, cocoa butter, lanolin, or beeswax.

For emulsions, incorporate it into the oil phase. To help preserve its natural aroma and lipid quality, avoid unnecessarily prolonged exposure to high temperatures.
