eye+TAMANU is a highly concentrated, organic, nourishing treatment for the sensitive skin around eyes and the perfect twin to face+TAMANU. Together they not only form an immediate barrier to the ravages of time and environment but work to correct historic imbalances. For centuries Polynesian women have used organic tamanu to promote healthy, clear, blemish-free skin. Note: The tamanu used in eye+TAMANU, contains Sc Glucan which provides natural UV protection in that it prevents 85% of the DNA damage and oxidative stress induced by UV radiation at 1% concentration as a new biological UV filter with a SPF 18-22 (Eur J Pharm. Sci 2007 Mar; 30 (3-4): 203-10. Epub 2006 Nov 9).
Know that a little goes a long way! o Dispense 2 drops onto back of hand (1 drop per eye) o Use fingertip to gently dab area around eyes o Use morning & evening, or as often as desired
Eye +TAMANU is dark green and luxurious to the touch, yet once applied, quickly and completely absorbed, leaving no oily residue. Tamanu contains three basic classes of lipids; neutral lipids, glycolipids, and phospholipids. The oil also contains a unique fatty acid called calophyllic acid, and a novel antibiotic lactone and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent called calophyllolide. These and other components of tamanu, including anti-inflammatory coumarins, account for only some of this mysterious oil’s beneficial activity. Based on known activities of known constituents, it's clear that tamanu possesses antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. The unique cicatrizing properties of tamanu aren't yet fully explained in existing scientific literature, though this activity is established and accepted. Same is true for tamanu’s anti-neuralgic properties. Tamanu is well documented for its relief of neuritis, but the constituents responsible and their modes of activity are not yet known.
