TO MAKE: Mix together equal parts of our
Organic Cucumber Seed Oil, Watermelon Seed Oil & Perilla Seed Oil. Store this mixture in a dropper or pump bottle. Can be stored in fridge for 3-4 months. BENEFITS:
- Cucumber seed oil is a light, non-greasy oil which has a LOT of nutrients in it! It contains phytosterols, tocopherols, vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. Cucumber seed oil is refreshing! It has a light consistency that absorbs lightening fast, leaving your skin smooth, silky and fresh.
- Our Watermelon seed oil is cold pressed from sun-dried watermelon seeds. Watermelon seed oil is high in unsaturated fatty acids, dominated by linoleic (63%) and oleic (15%) acids.Its unsaturated fatty acids hydrate the skin, and unlike some oils, it absorbs quickly into the skin, which means it is perfect for all types: dry, oily, or acne-prone.
- Perilla Seed Oil is a potent oil which demonstrates excellent antibacterial and anti- inflammatory qualities due to the abundance of linoleic acid. Rich in flavones, it offers potent antioxidant activity thus helping to prevent free-radical-induced damage to the skin cells, which can result in premature aging. This oil is a fine, ‘dry’ oil which is easily absorbed into the skin. Since it is really light oil, it works as an amazing hair serum which helps nourish the hair without being greasy or weighing them down.
Happy DIYing!
