Sunflower Seed Oil
Sunflower oil is an excellent emollient that is rich in essential fatty acids and is deeply nourishing for the skin. The sunflower seed oil contains a high concentration of linoleic acid. This property makes sunflower oil a suitable ingredient in skin products due to the positive benefits of linoleic acid. Linoleic acid, being the dominant fatty acid in sunflower oil can improve skin barrier function, regulate keratinocyte proliferation and accelerate skin barrier repair. It is also a non-comedogenic carrier oil that is easily absorbed and won’t clog pores. It is non-irritating and can be used on all skin types, including dry, oily, and acne-prone.
