If you accidentally stay out in the sun to long, forget to take your sunscreen to the beach, or lose track of time while working in the garden and get burned, you can immediately feel the soothing healing of tamanu oil. Tamanu can heal your sunburn and ease the discomfort better than anything you have ever tried before. It starts to heal your burn with the very first drop. Using our blended Tamanu oil will accelerate real healing.
Queen Bee recommends getting a small bottle of Tamanu 50/50 blend in your medicine cabinet in case you get too much sun exposure during the summer months! It eases the pain associated with the burning sensation and helps cool the skin quickly to avoid real damage to your important protective barrier! Full of natural antibacterials and antiviral properties it will help your skin heal and repair more quickly.
The source of tamanu oil only grows in the tropics, so you may not be aware of its magnificent healing powers. The people in Southeast Asia have extracted and used this miracle cure for anything from dry skin to severe burns for hundreds of years. Due to coverage on the Dr Oz show this spring, it is gaining popularity around the world.
The fruit from the tamanu tree has little black kernels in the center. The seeds are covered with sticky rich oil ready for extraction. At the end of the year, a single tree only yields enough fruit to extract 5 kilograms of this truly miraculous treatment for your skin.
It has been known to heal even severe third degree burns, and will heal sunburn faster than any current remedies on the market. you will need to apply to the affected area liberally and several times a day. We encourage our clients to mix with aloe to allow it to penetrate more quickly and topically cool during the application.
