Information

Caryodendron Orinocense, commonly known as Kahai or Cacay seed oil, is a nutrient-rich plant oil extracted from the seeds of the Kahai tree. This luxurious oil is celebrated for its high content of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants, making it a powerful ingredient in skincare products to nourish and revitalize the skin.

Where does it come from?

Kahai seed oil is derived from the Kahai tree, which is native to the tropical rainforests of South America, particularly in Colombia and Venezuela. The seeds are harvested from the treeโ€™s nuts, and the oil is extracted through a cold-pressing process, which preserves its potent nutrients and beneficial properties.

What are the benefits?

REJUVENATING PROTECTING SOOTHING

What are the benefits?

  • Rich in Retinol: Contains natural retinol (Vitamin A), which can promote cell turnover, minimizing the signs of maturing skin.
  • Deeply Moisturizing: High in essential fatty acids like linoleic acid, Kahai seed oil provides intense hydration to restore and maintain the skinโ€™s natural moisture barrier.
  • Antioxidant Protection: Packed with Vitamin E and F, it protects the skin from free radicals and environmental factors, promoting a youthful complexion.
  • Soothing: Its soothing properties make it ideal for calming irritated or sensitive skin, while also contributing to cell renewal.
  • Non-Greasy: Despite its richness, Kahai seed oil absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue, making it suitable for all skin types, including oily skin.

How is it used in our products?

Included for its high concentration of active ingredients for mature or sensitive skin, it contributes to skin tautness and a youthful appearance. In nighttime formulations, its natural retinol content can renew and rejuvenate the skin while you sleep.
