(Trichilia emetica – The Healing Oil of the Southern Wilds)
Cold-pressed from the seeds of the majestic Mafura tree, native to southern and tropical Africa, this rare butter-like oil is deeply nourishing, antimicrobial, and regenerative — used traditionally to treat wounds, soothe inflamed skin, and revitalise hair and scalp.
Rich in limonoids, oleic acid, and trichilin A, Mafura oil is uniquely suited for skin that is sun-damaged, reactive, or scarred. It melts into the skin, restoring elasticity, fading blemishes, and forming a natural barrier against moisture loss and environmental damage. On the scalp, Mafura softens dryness, relieves itching, and promotes healthier hair growth.
This is not just an oil — it is ancestral skin medicine, redefined.
Deeply restorative. Antimicrobial. Luxuriously soft.
Mafura oil nourishes dry skin, soothes inflammation, and repairs scalp and hair. Pure, cold-pressed African healing.
Skin Balm / Body Oil
Use alone or blend into body butters, balms, or massage oils. Especially effective on dry elbows, cracked heels, scars, and sun-exposed skin.
Scalp & Hair
Massage into the scalp to relieve dryness and dandruff. Use as a deep-conditioning treatment to restore softness and shine to brittle hair.
Note
Mafura oil solidifies at cooler temperatures. Warm gently between hands or in a warm water bath. Store away from direct heat or light.
