FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Nutrient-Dense Profile: This Cold-Pressed Chia Seed Oil is Extra Virgin and unrefined, preserving its naturally high levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Particularly rich in Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) and Linoleic Acid (LA), the unique nutrient profile of Chia Seed Oil enhances skin and hair health.

Skin Barrier Support: Lightweight and fast-absorbing, Extra Virgin Chia Seed Oil helps reinforce the skin barrier without leaving a greasy residue. Perfect for dry, sensitive, or mature skin, this Unrefined Chia Seed Oil is a popular ingredient in facial serums, moisturizers, and creams that aim to hydrate and soothe.

Naturally Radiant Hair: Widely used in hair care across traditional cultures, Chia Seed Carrier Oil improves the shine and manageability of hair. This extra virgin variety is particularly recommended in leave-in conditioners, styling oils, and scalp treatments targeting dull or dry strands.

Versatile Emollient: With its mild aroma and excellent spreadability, Extra Virgin Chia Seed Oil serves as a versatile base for massage blends, body oils, and emulsified lotions. Its smooth texture and neutral aroma allows for easy integration into oil-based recipes without overpowering other ingredients.


DESCRIPTION

Extracted from the seeds of the Salvia hispanica L. plant—native to Southern Mexico and Northern Guatemala—Chia Seed Carrier Oil (Extra Virgin) is cold-pressed and unrefined to maintain its natural integrity. This high-performance, cosmetic-grade oil is known for its balanced omega fatty acid composition, light consistency, and mild aromatic profile.

Chia Seeds have long been revered for their nutrient density and adaptability, and this carrier oil continues their legacy in the personal care industry. As a natural ingredient, Extra Virgin Chia Seed Oil offers excellent absorption and conditioning benefits for both skin and hair applications. Its Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) and Linoleic Acid (LA) content is particularly well-suited to support the skin barrier, while its lightweight nature lends a smooth, elegant finish to final products.


DIRECTIONS AND SUGGESTED USAGE

  • Skin Care Formulations: Incorporate Extra Virgin Chia Seed Oil into facial serums, creams, lotions, and moisturizers at 1–10% to support hydration, skin conditioning, and barrier-enhancing properties.
  • Hair and Scalp Care: For products that impart hair care benefits such as softness, manageability, and natural shine, use this unrefined oil at 2–5% in conditioners, scalp treatments, or styling serums.
  • Body and Massage Products: For body oils, massage blends, and emulsified body lotions, use Chia Seed Extra Virgin Oil at 2–10%. Can be blended with other carrier oils to adjust absorption rate and texture.
