Emu Oil

What Is It

Emu oil is a natural oil extracted from the fat of the emu, a flightless bird native to Australia. Used for centuries by indigenous Australians, emu oil is celebrated for its remarkable ability to soothe, heal, and hydrate the skin. Its unique composition of essential fatty acids allows it to deeply penetrate the skin, delivering moisture and nourishment where it’s needed most.

Emu oil is deeply compatible with human skin. It penetrates, soothes, and carries other ingredients deeper—helping your lips stay soft, supple, and genuinely restored.

The Benefits

Deep Penetration: Emu oil’s unique molecular structure enables it to penetrate deeply into the skin, providing intense hydration and delivering nutrients to the layers where they are most effective.

Anti-Inflammatory: Naturally rich in anti-inflammatory compounds, emu oil helps reduce redness, swelling, and irritation, making it ideal for soothing sensitive or damaged skin.

Healing and Soothing: Packed with essential fatty acids like omega-3, -6, and -9, emu oil supports skin regeneration and repair, helping to heal dry, cracked, or damaged skin while providing immediate soothing relief.

Non-Greasy Absorption: Despite its powerful moisturizing properties, emu oil is lightweight and easily absorbed, leaving no greasy residue—perfect for frequent use in skincare routines.
