Kiwi seed oil, NZ

Kiwi seed oil (also known as kiwifruit seed oil) is a lightweight oil cold pressed from the seeds of New Zealand kiwifruit. It is naturally high in alpha-linolenic acid (omega-3) and contains naturally occurring vitamin E, making it a popular ingredient in modern skincare formulations.

With a particularly high omega-3 content, kiwi seed oil is valued in facial oils, serums and moisturising formulations where a light texture and fast absorption are desired. It leaves very little residue on the skin and can help support the skin’s moisture balance.

Key Characteristics

Kiwi seed oil is considered a “dry” oil, meaning it absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a heavy or greasy feel. Because of this, it is often used in facial oils and serums designed for daily use.

Its balanced fatty acid profile makes it suitable for a wide range of skincare formulations, including products intended for sensitive or oily skin types.

How to Use

Kiwi seed oil can be used on its own or blended with other carrier oils in formulations such as:

Facial oils and oil serums
Moisturisers and creams
Body oils and lotions
Hair and scalp treatments
Massage oils

It can be used at low percentages in blends or at higher levels when a lightweight nourishing oil is desired.
