Safflower oil, certified organic
Certified organic safflower oil extracted from the seeds of the Carthamus tinctorius plant, a flowering crop cultivated for centuries and valued for its light, silky texture. With a naturally neutral aroma and fast-absorbing consistency, safflower oil is a popular choice in natural skincare and haircare formulations where a lightweight, non-greasy finish is desired.
Rich in linoleic acid (omega-6), safflower oil is widely used in moisturising products, facial and body serums, lotions, and massage blends. It layers comfortably on the skin without heaviness and blends seamlessly with other carrier oils, butters and essential oils. In haircare, it is often included in masks and scalp oils for softness and manageability without weighing the hair down.
A versatile, gentle oil suitable for most skin types, safflower oil is especially favoured by formulators creating light emulsions and fast-absorbing body oils.
Note: Individual responses may vary, and a patch test is recommended before use, especially for those with known allergies or skin sensitivities.
