Raspberry Seed Oil
Description
Raspberry Seed Oil is gaining popularity in the beauty world for its wealth of sought after skin care benefits. This wonder oil is jam packed full of all the stuff your skin loves and needs. It contains more than 50% Omega 6 essential fatty acid, Linoleic acid, which is great for oily and blemished skin. This powerhouse fatty acid is known for its moisturising and balancing powers.
This oil can be used as a base for massage or added to a massage blend. It has medium viscosity and is absorbed quickly and won’t leave your skin feeling greasy.
It is packed full of amino acids and contains high levels of alpha and gamma tocopherols (vitamin E), an antioxidant which makes this oil ideal for those with mature skin.
This oil is also nourishing for the hair and can help provide protection against environmental elements. For gloriously glossy locks, look no further than our Raspberry Seed Oil.
All vegetable oils and fats are 100% fat and are generally high in calories (on average about 120 calories per tablespoon). Vegetable oils are often used in food preparation for salad dressings, cooking, frying, baking, sauces and marinades. As a general guide, virgin and unrefined oils have more of the oil’s natural flavour and lend themselves well for use in cold dishes. Refined oils generally have longer shelf lives and may have a higher smoke point and therefore be better for high heat cooking, but this varies depending on the type of oil. Each oil has its own distinct flavour and nutrient and Fatty Acid composition, so each oil may be used for different purposes depending on your need.
Certified cruelty free and vegan friendly.
