About this product
Open the bottle and someone always says it: honey bun, or candy, or the bake shop on the corner. Chia seed CO2 extract is very light and pale gold, with a sweet, baked-goods aroma that is never strong and fades from the skin within minutes.
It is a CO2 total of Salvia hispanica, organically grown and extracted in Germany, and it has the highest concentration of omega-3 linolenic acid of all our carrier oils and extracts. That alpha-linolenic acid helps skin and hair maintain their moisture. The oil smooths and softens skin, works well in hair and scalp formulas, and is said to make a lovely cuticle and nail conditioner.
Details
- Botanical name: Salvia hispanica
- Origin: organically grown seeds, extracted in Germany
- Method: CO2 total extraction
- Color and aroma: pale gold, softly sweet
How to use
Use it by the drop on its own, or add it to your favorite body oil or lotion; recommendations run from 0.5 to 5 percent, though a single drop at full strength is a small pleasure. Try a drop under your lip gloss, or worked into your cuticles at night.
A sweet little luxury for skin you mean to keep soft for a long time.
