Palm Kernel Oil is a versatile edible and industrial oil extracted from the kernels (seeds) of the oil palm fruit (Elaeis guineensis). It is distinct from palm oil, which is derived from the fruit’s pulp. This oil is characterized by its light yellow color and mild, nutty aroma. Rich in medium-chain fatty acids, particularly lauric acid, Palm Kernel Oil exhibits excellent moisturizing, cleansing, and emulsifying properties. Widely used in food, cosmetics, and industrial applications, it is valued for its stability, texture-enhancing qualities, and skin-conditioning benefits.
