Australia is one of the world’s most ancient and isolated lands, with some of the greatest surviving biodiversity on the planet and over 20,000 endemic plant species. The Kakadu National Park is a pristine wetland forest that is World Heritage Listed by UNESCO for both its environmental and indigenous cultural value for the planet. The park includes Aboriginal rock paintings dating back 5,000 years plus an array of exotic flora.
One of the dominant plant species in the park is the Kakadu Plum (Terminalia Ferdinandiana), a small green fruit with a pleasant acidic flavor, known to be a significant nutritional ‘bush food’ for the Aborigines for thousands of years. Kakadu Plum fruit is the world’s richest source of natural vitamin C containing up to 4% ascorbic acid. One small Kakadu Plum fruit is equivalent to around 10 oranges in terms of vitamin C content.
The Kakadu Plum is sustainably wild-harvested and organic. Kakadu Plum Extract is a perfect natural ingredient specifically for cosmetic applications including:
- Anti-aging (anti-oxidant),
- Skin Nutritional (a vitamin supplement),
- Acne Treatments (blemish control),
- Environmental Protection (anti-oxidant)
- After Sun (skin protectant and regeneration).
