Why Baobab Is a Skincare Essential
Often referred to as the Tree of Life, the baobab’s oil is packed with skin-renewing nutrients. Its fatty acid profile helps maintain the skin’s lipid layer, while vitamins A, D, E and F support elasticity, combat oxidative stress, and reduce visible ageing. Nu Eco harnesses this power to bring visible, lasting results with every application.
