Chia seed oil, certified organic

Cold-pressed, organic chia seed oil is derived from the seeds of Salvia hispanica, a plant native to Central and South America. Used for centuries by the Aztecs and Mayans, chia seeds were prized for their nutritional and functional benefits. In modern skincare and haircare, chia seed oil has gained popularity for its lightweight texture and rich concentration of essential fatty acids. Extracted through cold pressing, this method ensures the oil retains its natural antioxidants, vitamins, and beneficial compounds without the use of heat or solvents.

Skincare Uses

Lightweight yet deeply hydrating: Absorbs quickly into the skin while providing lasting moisture, making it suitable for both dry and combination skin types.

Rich in omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids: Naturally high in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and linoleic acid, supporting skin conditioning and hydration.

A popular addition to facial and body oils: Often included in serums, creams, and lotions to help maintain a soft, supple complexion.

Contains natural antioxidants and vitamins: Naturally rich in vitamin E, polyphenols, and flavonoids, frequently used in skincare formulations designed to protect against environmental stressors.

Versatile for different skincare applications: Used in facial oils, body butters, lip balms, and lightweight moisturisers.

Haircare Uses

Nourishes without heaviness: Provides moisture while remaining light on the scalp and hair, making it suitable for all hair types.

Enhances softness and manageability: Frequently found in hair serums and leave-in conditioners for a silky, smooth feel.

A popular choice for scalp care: Often included in scalp treatments where plant-based hydration is desired.

Blends well with other botanical oils: Commonly paired with oils like jojoba and camellia for balanced hair hydration.

Note: Individual responses may vary, and a patch test is recommended before use, especially for those with known allergies or skin sensitivities.
