Pumpkin seed oil, certified organic

Organic, extra virgin, cold‑pressed pumpkin seed oil is extracted from the seeds of pumpkins and has been valued for its rich, nutrient‑dense composition in natural beauty traditions. Certified organic and extra virgin, this oil is carefully processed to preserve its high content of essential fatty acids and natural compounds. Its long-standing reputation makes it a popular choice for those creating their own DIY skincare and haircare formulations.

Skincare Uses

Nutrient‑rich and hydrating: Pumpkin seed oil is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and phytosterols, providing a nourishing base for moisturisers, serums, and facial oils.

Essential fatty acids: It is highly regarded for its significant levels of linoleic acid (omega‑6) and oleic acid (omega‑9), which are often valued for supporting balanced skincare formulations.

Lightweight and non‑greasy: Its light texture allows for easy absorption, making it suitable for various skin types and enhancing the overall feel of the skin.

Haircare Uses

Nourishing and conditioning: Frequently used in haircare products, pumpkin seed oil is appreciated for its ability to add moisture and improve manageability in hair formulations.

Enhancing texture: Its rich supply of essential fatty acids makes it a favoured ingredient in leave‑in treatments and conditioners, contributing to a naturally soft and shiny hair appearance.

Additional Uses

Versatile ingredient: With its nutrient‑dense profile, organic extra virgin cold‑pressed pumpkin seed oil is widely used as a carrier oil in DIY cosmetic formulations, supporting both skincare and haircare products.

Due to it's dark colour and distinctive aroma it is generally blended with other, more neutral carrier oils, such as jojoba and almond.

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