Karanja Oil: Our prettiest Source of Organic Glycerine

What is Karanja? 

Karanja trees, also known by their Latin name Pongamia pinnata or "Indian beech", are leguminous trees. They grow 15-25 meters high and in almost all regions of India. Their crown is large, the flowers in turn are small, white, pink or purple. 

Karanja seeds have a high oil content. The light yellow and mild caranja oil is obtained from them by extraction. In India, it has many traditional uses, such as in Ayurveda. Since karanja oil is said to have antiseptic, hydrating, soothing and healing effects, it is used to treat skin diseases, for example. 

Karanja oil is said to counteract premature skin aging, which is why it is used in more and more skin care products and shampoos. It has UV-absorbing properties and has a natural sun protection factor of about 10.
