Rahua (Ungurahua)
Amazonian women have for eons depended on the oil from this tree nut to nurture and strengthen their hair. It fortifies weak and damaged hair, nourishes and maintains hair follicle and scalp health, and its super-fine molecules push color pigmentation deep into the hair shaft, greatly extending color endurance. Skin benefits from its generous supply of omega-9 fatty acids, which tone, calm, and smooth the skin and restore its natural moisture balance.

Aloe
