Macadamia Natural Oil Raises the Bar in a Hot New Haircare Category

With a Unique Blend of Two Coveted Oils for Superior Results.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE—Los Angeles, CA … The global hair care industry is about to witness yet another first.  On the heels of the über-successful trend for oils, comes the first company to combine two of the worlds most rare, valuable and lightweight natural oils, proving that this burgeoning category in the hair care market is not only here to stay, but is growing with enormous alacrity. Introducing Macadamia Natural Oil™, the first and only company to combine the highly effective and uniquely superior Macadamia Nut Oil from the South Pacific with the wildly popular Argan Seed Oil from North Africa’s Berber region for an unprecedented marriage made in hair care heaven.

All Oils Are Not Created Equal…

Undoubtedly there are other oils being used in hair care products, however, Macadamia Natural Oil™ is the first and only company to use oil from the Macadamia Nut. “We chose Macadamia Nut oil due to its uncanny similarity and ability to mimic the body’s own natural oils, allowing for unparalleled absorption and rapid penetration into the hair and skin,” explains John Fasan, CEO of Macadamia Natural Oil™.  Clearly, there is no other oil like it.

Replenish. Revitalize.  Nurture.  Treat.

The creative and scientific geniuses at Macadamia Natural Oil™ fundamentally understand the ever-pressing need for truly healthy hair and are unequivocally devoted to one simple mission: To provide products that combine Macadamia Nut Oil with Argan Seed Oil and with special blends of nature’s most nourishing botanicals to formulate the ultimate in hair rejuvenation and maintenance for all hair types.  “By utilizing superior quality, knowledge, innovation and technology, we’re able to formulate products that are poised to be industry leaders right out of the gate,” states Fred Phillips, President of Macadamia Natural Oil™. “The response to this brand has been overwhelmingly astounding.”

A Blended Performance….

Just like the statement “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts”, when Macadamia Nut Oil and Argan Seed Oil are united together, the results are far more successful than if either ingredient was used independent of one another.  And therein lies the scientific beauty behind Macadamia Natural Oil™ and its myriad of benefits:

Where Health Meets Beauty from the Inside Out…

Macadamia Nut Oil

For thousands of years Australian aborigines have consumed the macadamia nut for its high nutritional value and health-promoting benefits.  Today, Macadamia Nut Oil is widely revered for its incredible benefits to hair, skin and overall health including:

• Rare and unique composition with an incredible compatibility to the bodies’ own natural oils, allowing for extraordinary absorption and rapid penetration into hair and skin.
• Incredibly rich concentration of essential fatty acids, natural antioxidants and vitamins penetrate, smooth and coat hair shaft, improving elasticity and strength, leaving hair deeply nourished and revitalized.
• Extremely rich in essential fatty acids, with the distinctive feature of resembling sebum.  This replication of the natural oils that our scalp produces for protection make it an ideal enriching and replenishing agent with rapid absorption.
• Contains the highest amount of palmitoleic acid (an Omega 7 fatty acid) of any plant. Palmitoleic acid is abundant in the body at birth but decreases with age, causing dull, coarse, dehydrated hair. By replenishing hair with it, this essential component of human sebum plays an integral role in lubrication, softening and protection of hair protein structures, which ultimately leaves hair hydrated, healthy and shiny.

Argan Seed Oil

Known as “liquid gold” to Moroccan’s, Argan Seed Oil has been used by countless generations for its beneficial use in skin, hair, nail and therapeutic treatments.  This rare and difficult-to-obtain oil restores shine and softness to dry, brittle hair while nourishing hair damaged by chemical services.

• Rich in Omega 9, Linoleic and unsaturated fatty acids, all beneficial for improving hair strength and health. 
• Rare combination of sterols found in Argan Seed Oil allow for more rapid penetration because their structure is very similar to human sterols. 
• Naturally contains incredibly high levels of Vitamin E which helps revitalize hair damaged by heat, wind, oxidation, over-styling and over-processing and creates the perfect condition for healthy hair to grow.
