Our superhero ingredient, Tamanu Oil is more than just another botanical oil—it’s a functional skin treatment that's backed by scientific studies. Truly nature's best-kept beauty secret, Tamanu Oil is a quiet powerhouse that's focused on how the skin actually functions, not just how it looks. Its ability to heal and regenerate skin comes from its unique botanical composition of antioxidants, essential fatty acids, vitamins C and E that skin naturally drinks up. Tamanu Oil is rich in beneficial fatty acids, primarily oleic acid (Omega-9) and linoleic acid (Omega-6), along with significant amounts of stearic and palmitic acids, which form the skin's protective barrier, promote moisture retention, stimulate collagen production and provide healing properties. Its active compounds, calophyllolide and calophyllic acid, and triterpenes, give it its amazing regenerative power.
We worked with scientists to harness the benefits of Tamanu Oil with premium tropical ingredients. Calm Balm is gentle for daily use yet delivers intensive comfort for when skin is stressed, sensitive and experiencing signs of aging.

The star ingredient
Our wild-harvested, cold-pressed Tamanu (Calophyllum Inophyllum) Oil is a prized rare non-edible oil that is more lightweight, easily absorbed, and proven superior to other oils in topical skin benefits. Used in traditional island cultures, it grows in the wild and largely undiscovered in southern Philippines, where we source from local communities. The harvesting process is highly sustainable making it non-destructive to our environment. Growing and preserving Tamanu trees is also essential in protecting our land from typhoons.

Frequently asked questions
Is The Calm Balm for my daily skincare or for targeted treatment?
Both. The Calm Balm is a great addition to your skincare routine especially in the evening to align its deep-repairing action with the skin’s natural overnight regeneration cycle. It is also an effective first aid care for spot-treating irritated or damaged skin on face and body.
What skin type can use Calm Balm? Will it make me break out?
Tamanu Oil is generally safe for most skin types, including sensitive, dry, combination, and acne-prone skin. It moisturizes without clogging pores. It has a low comedogenic rating of 2 out of 5 (where 0 doesn't clog pores at all) and is anti-inflammatory, which means it can actually help prevent breakouts. But as with any new product, patch test first and monitor how your skin reacts.
Compared to other cosmetic oils, Tamanu is considered medium viscosity. It is lighter than: Avocado oil, Coconut oil and Olive oil.
For acne-prone skin: In vitro tests have also shown strong antibacterial activity against Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for inflammatory acne. Additionally, its high linoleic acid content helps regulate sebum production, making it beneficial for oily and acne-prone skin despite its rich texture.
Why is it a first aid treatment?
Tamanu Oil is called "Nature’s First Aid Kit" for its ability to treat everything from acne to burns. Numerous biological studies have confirmed its modern uses in cellular regeneration. Recommended for cuts, sunburn, kitchen burns, rashes, fungal infections, inflammation, athlete's foot, ringworm, shingles, herpes sores, bug bites, surgery stitches, and over 100 uses. Think of it as an alternative to steroid and antibiotic creams.
Tamanu Oil has been documented to successfully treat burns and scars in hospital settings. It promotes the healing and growth of new skin cells (keratinocytes and fibroblasts)—without the harsh side effects of synthetic or harsh ingredients (such as peeling, dry skin, photosensitivity or skin barrier damage).
Here are some important considerations:
- Allergic Reactions: Since tamanu oil is derived from a nut, individuals with nut allergies should avoid using it.
- Not for Open Wounds: It is not advisable on open wounds or major injuries.
A patch test is recommended for anyone trying Calm Balm for the first time to check for any adverse reactions.
