Kakadu plum oil and French Ente plum oil are both derived from different species of plums, and each offers unique properties due to their distinctive sources. Here are the key differences between the two oils:

Source

• Kakadu Plum Oil: This oil is extracted from the Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana), a native Australian fruit. The Kakadu plum is known for its rich vitamin C content and has been used for centuries in traditional Aboriginal medicine.
• French Ente Plum Oil: This oil is derived from the Ente plum (Prunus domestica), a variety of plum commonly grown in France. It is especially known for being used in the production of high-quality plums for making prune products.

Nutritional Composition

• Kakadu Plum Oil: Known for its extremely high antioxidant content, particularly vitamin C (up to 100 times more than oranges). It also contains essential fatty acids, including omega-3, -6, and -9, and has strong anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
• French Ente Plum Oil: Rich in omega-6 fatty acids (particularly linoleic acid), vitamin E, and antioxidants like polyphenols. It is often used for its moisturizing and skin-nourishing properties, as well as its ability to support skin elasticity.

Skin Benefits

• Kakadu Plum Oil: Its high vitamin C content makes it popular for brightening the skin, reducing hyperpigmentation, and anti-aging benefits. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties also help soothe irritated skin and improve overall skin health.
• French Ente Plum Oil: Known for its hydrating and soothing effects on the skin, it is often used in anti-aging and moisturizing formulations. The oil is lighter than many other fruit oils, making it suitable for sensitive and dry skin.

Uses in Beauty and Skin Care

• Kakadu Plum Oil: Due to its high concentration of vitamin C, it is typically used in skincare products focused on brightening, anti-aging, and repairing sun damage. It is often found in serums, creams, and face oils.
• French Ente Plum Oil: It is commonly used in skincare products like moisturizers, anti-aging creams, and haircare products due to its ability to hydrate, promote elasticity, and reduce inflammation. It is also valued in formulations for delicate or sensitive skin.

Fragrance and Texture

• Kakadu Plum Oil: This oil typically has a mild, slightly nutty aroma and a light texture that absorbs quickly into the skin.
• French Ente Plum Oil: It has a subtle, fruity scent and a slightly heavier texture compared to Kakadu plum oil. It is more emollient and gives the skin a smooth, velvety finish.
