This input has been provided by one of our customers, we hope it assists you in making an informed purchasing decision: Palm oil has been used in the hair of African-American women as a pre-oil treatment and then washed out. It makes our hair type extremely soft. We also make hair creams using it with other butters like shea and mango and other oils. It has a tendency to stain and has its own aroma, this is why we either use it as a pre-hair treatment or we mix it with other butters.
This particular oil carries a unique certification in which this certified palm is kept separate from ordinary palm throughout the entire supply chain. It is produced sustainably from a single RSPO certified mill and can be identified and traced back to this single source. RSPO IP certification provides consumers and manufacturers confidence in their purchasing decisions not only in terms of sustainable farming practices being used, but the working conditions, pay, and resources offered to the farmers and overall positive impact the families and community benefit from.

Carrier oils and most other liquids are dispensed in individual HDPE plastic pails or containers with some type of handle, each container holds the purchased net weight of liquid.

Hard butters such as Cocoa are dispensed factory-wrapped in plastic and placed inside a box. Castile Gel is dispensed in a self-contained cubitainer with pouring spout.
NOTE: While the packaging methods mentioned above are generalized, we reserve the right to dispense and ship in any available container. If a customer at any time feels more comfortable transferring an essential or carrier oil to glass, this should be done.
