Sunflower oil, certified organic
Certified organic, cold pressed sunflower oil (Helianthus annuus) is light, mild, and versatile, making it a staple ingredient in natural skincare and haircare formulations. With a neutral colour, soft texture, and subtle aroma, it blends easily with other ingredients and is well suited to a wide range of products.
Naturally rich in vitamin E and essential fatty acids, sunflower oil helps support the skin’s natural barrier, retain moisture, and leave a soft, conditioned feel.
