Their MagNUT Sense Oil is a cold pressed, sustainable, 100% natural, virgin oil and a powerful source of natural Selenium that helps to firm the skin and provide antioxidant protection.
MagNUT Sense Oil, a 100% natural, virgin oil harvested from the Monkey Pot tree grown in the Colombian Caribbean along the Magdalena River banks.
Other than deforestation, local income opportunities are scarce, therefore, IIC employs the locals to protect the trees, harvest the MagNUT by hand, and to cold press them to preserve their purity and efficacy.
They are rich in Vitamin E, antioxidants, Omega’s 3, 6, and 9 and contain more than 70% fatty acids. Upon application, the oil forms an elegantly dry protective film that promotes long term hydration and prevents moisture loss.

Their long history of using bio-based raw materials means they have a great responsibility to address issues around nature, biodiversity and dependencies on ecosystems. We continue to take action to reduce our impacts on land, water, and other natural resources, promoting a positive restorative approach beyond “doing less harm”.

Motivated by our ambition to continually improve our sourcing practices and to respond to our stakeholders’ demand for ethically sourced, natural products, IBR recently became a provisional member of the Union for Ethical BioTrade (UEBT), an internationally recognized nonprofit association that promotes sourcing with respect.
Being a member of UEBT sets a guidepost for how we should harvest, collect or grow ingredients from biodiversity in a way that is respectful of the local environment and the people who call it home. As a Provisional Member, we have successfully passed the UEBT membership assessment and comply with UEBT entry indicators, and we are in the process of acquiring full membership.
