Cucumber Oil
Cucumber Seed Oil (Cucumis sativus)
Cucumber oil, cold-pressed from the seeds of Cucumis sativus, is a light, fast-absorbing carrier oil prized for its soothing, hydrating, and anti-inflammatory properties. Rich in essential fatty acids, including Omega 6 (linoleic acid), oleic acid, and phytosterols—along with vitamins E and B1, this unrefined Cucumber oil is a potent source of nutrients for dry, sensitive, and mature skin types.
Its cooling and rejuvenating qualities make Cucumber seed oil a staple in natural skincare and haircare formulations, especially for those looking to calm inflammation, combat aging signs, or enhance skin texture.
