It contains myristicin, an active compound that stimulates human cells to release nitric oxide to help fight inflammation. Kawakawa has a detoxifying effect, naturally drawing out impurities and calming redness. Because of its high concentration of linoleic acid it also helps to promote collagen production, aids acne prevention, shrink pimples, and improve the skins elasticity.
