Hibiscus Seed Oil, Certified Organic
Certified organic, cold-pressed hibiscus seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the Hibiscus sabdariffa plant, long appreciated in tropical regions. Light in texture with a silky, fast-absorbing finish, it has become a popular ingredient among natural skincare formulators and DIY enthusiasts looking to create high-performance, plant-based products.
Skincare Use
Naturally rich in omega-6 linoleic acid and tocopherols, hibiscus seed oil is commonly used in moisturising and conditioning formulations. Its gentle astringent feel and subtle natural acids make it a favourite for products designed to refine and smooth the appearance of the skin. Often chosen for facial oils, serums, lotions, and balms where a lightweight finish is desired.
Haircare Use
Frequently included in hair oils, masks, and scalp treatments to support a softer, more manageable feel. Its nutrient profile and quick absorption make it suitable for leave-in treatments without weighing the hair down.
DIY Formulation
Hibiscus seed oil blends easily with other carrier oils, essential oils, and emulsifiers, making it a versatile choice for customised skincare and haircare creations. Also used in natural soapmaking for its conditioning properties.
Note: Individual responses may vary, and a patch test is recommended before use, especially for those with known allergies or skin sensitivities.
