Also known as the 'elephant tree' because elephants love its fruit, Marula, or Sclerocarya birrea, is a tree that grows in the south of the African continent and in the sub-Sahelian part of West Africa. It can reach heights of 7 to 18 metres and was declared a protected tree in South Africa in 1951, due to its great importance as a food, commercial, cultural and medicinal resource in this area, particularly for the Bantu people.

Considered a multi-purpose tree by local populations, it is part of many legends and rituals, and its leaves are used for various medicinal purposes, while its fruit is eaten as is, or fermented to produce beer. Renowned for their high vitamin C content, these yellow-skinned, white-fleshed fruits are also used to produce a liqueur that is widespread in southern Africa. The fruit contains a particularly hard stone, from which the tree derives its botanical name (skleros = hard, karya = nut), and which contains the seeds. The seeds are eaten as they are or used to produce Marula oil, which is highly prized as a skin and hair care ingredient. The Zulu people used it as a massage oil, while the Tsonga people appreciated it for moisturising and nourishing the skin, and for beautifying and protecting dry, brittle hair. Marula oil has a beneficial fatty acid composition for nourishing the skin, keeping it supple and preventing dehydration, and its richness in antioxidant compounds makes it a wonderful anti-ageing active ingredient. Gentle and easily absorbed by the skin, it is ideal for use in a wide range of beauty products. It is also an excellent active ingredient for massage oils, and can be used as a carrier ingredient in aromatherapy blends.
