Healthy skin begins with healthy lipids.

Pure Marula Oil is a luxurious, single-origin facial oil formulated with 100% cold-pressed, biodynamic Marula Oil to replenish essential skin lipids, restore moisture balance and strengthen the skin's natural protective barrier. Naturally lightweight with an exceptionally fine molecular structure, it absorbs rapidly without leaving a greasy residue, delivering lasting nourishment while allowing the skin to breathe.

Harvested from wild-growing Marula trees, this nutrient-dense botanical oil is naturally rich in omega fatty acids, tocopherols, tocotrienols, flavonoids, phenolic compounds and phytosterols that help defend against oxidative stress while supporting healthy-looking, resilient skin. As it replenishes depleted lipids, the complexion appears smoother, softer and more luminous with improved comfort and elasticity.

Suitable for even the most sensitive skin, Pure Marula Oil helps protect against moisture loss, environmental aggressors and daily dehydration, leaving skin visibly replenished, balanced and naturally radiant.

Skin Science:

The skin's lipid barrier is essential for maintaining hydration, resilience and overall skin health. Daily exposure to environmental aggressors, cleansing, seasonal changes and natural aging can gradually deplete these protective lipids, leading to dryness, sensitivity, tightness and a weakened barrier.

Pure Marula Oil helps replenish these essential lipids with a naturally balanced profile of omega fatty acids and antioxidant-rich phytonutrients that reinforce barrier function, reduce transepidermal water loss and support long-lasting skin comfort. The result is healthier-looking skin that feels supple, resilient and visibly nourished.

African Botanics Pure Marula Oil — cold-pressed single-origin Marula Oil for barrier repair, free radical protection, and petal-soft skin

What is Pure Marula Oil?

Pure Marula Oil is a single-origin luxury face oil from African Botanics, made from just two ingredients: 100% cold-pressed Marula Oil and Vitamin E. Extracted from biodynamic Marula trees in South Africa, it's rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and tocopherols. Lightweight and fast-absorbing, it penetrates deeply to nourish, support collagen, and leave skin supple and luminous.

What is the difference between Pure Marula Oil and Neroli Infused Marula Oil?

Both share the same single-origin Marula base, but they serve different needs. Pure Marula Oil is the purest form — just Marula Oil and Vitamin E, with no added scent — making it ideal for the most sensitive and reactive skin. Neroli Infused Marula Oil adds an active Neroli blossom infusion that refines pores, brightens, and calms redness, with a soft floral scent, making it better suited to oily, combination, and blemish-prone skin. In short: Pure Marula is the minimal, fragrance-free barrier oil; Neroli Infused is the balancing, pore-refining oil.

Who should use Pure Marula Oil, and who should use Neroli Infused Marula Oil?

Choose Pure Marula Oil if you have extremely sensitive, reactive, dry, or mature skin, prefer a completely unscented formula, or are pregnant or breastfeeding and want the simplest possible oil. Choose Neroli Infused Marula Oil if you have oily, combination, or blemish-prone skin and want refined pores, brighter tone, and a calming floral ritual. Many people keep both — Pure Marula for sensitive days and around the eyes, Neroli Infused when skin needs balancing.

Is Pure Marula Oil good for the skin?

Yes. Rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, Pure Marula Oil supports collagen and elasticity while soothing inflammation, sensitivity, and redness. It's one of the lightest, fastest-absorbing botanical oils, penetrating deeply to nourish and hydrate without heaviness.

Is Pure Marula Oil comedogenic?

No — Pure Marula Oil is non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores. It suits all skin types, including oily and acne-prone, and helps rebalance the skin's natural oil levels rather than congesting it.

What skin types is it for?

All skin types, including normal, dry, mature, environmentally stressed, and extremely sensitive skin. Its two-ingredient simplicity and fragrance-free formula make it one of the gentlest oils available.

Does Pure Marula Oil lighten the skin?

No. Pure Marula Oil does not lighten or bleach the skin. It nourishes, soothes, and protects, helping improve overall tone, texture, and radiance through hydration and antioxidant support.

Is Pure Marula Oil safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Yes. With just Marula Oil and Vitamin E and no retinol or added fragrance, Pure Marula Oil is well-suited to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. As with any product, consult your physician if you have specific concerns.

How do I use Pure Marula Oil?

Warm 5–8 drops in your palms and gently press onto cleansed, toned skin — face, neck, and décolleté — AM and/or PM while skin is still damp to lock in moisture. Use it on its own, after an essence or serum, or mixed into your moisturizer or foundation for added nourishment.

When should I use it in my routine?

Pure Marula Oil is applied after your essence and/or serum, or mixed into moisturizer or foundation. It's also ideal layered over retinol, which can be drying — the oil helps soothe and replenish the barrier.

Is it vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes. Pure Marula Oil is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, made with single-origin, biodynamic, responsibly sourced Marula Oil.

How long does one bottle last?

With daily use, a 30ml bottle of Pure Marula Oil can last up to three months. A 3ml travel size is also available — ideal for trying it or keeping in your bag.

What does it feel and smell like?

The texture is a lightweight, fast-absorbing oil that sinks in quickly and leaves skin petal-soft, never greasy. It's naturally fragrance-free, with only the faint, botanical scent of pure Marula, which fades quickly.
