Baobab oil is non-irritating and non-drying and can be good for topical application for oily or acne prone skin due to its high percentage of linoleic acid, which can also help in the healing process of sunburn and other skin irritations. It is also good for dry skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.
Baobab oil absorbs easily into the skin, can help improve skin tone, elasticity, and regenerate and renew skin cells.
