Description
A skin and hair oil created using just one pure ingredient; cold pressed broccoli seed oil.
A natural, vegan and organic oil that is often found in skin care rituals for its hydrating and antioxidant properties. Haeckels’ Broccoli Seed Oil can be used on its own or combined with our other oils.
The Science:
For skin:
Containing Vitamin A in the form of carotenoids, some people are turning to Broccoli Seed Oil as a gentle alternative to retinoid or retinol products. These products utilize a form of Vitamin A that helps the skin renew itself faster, but in some cases can cause irritation. Broccoli Seed Oil provides a form of topical Vitamin A without undesirable side effects.
Broccoli Seed Oil also contains linoleic acid, which can promote ceramide synthesis. By promoting ceramide production, Broccoli Seed Oil can be a powerful moisturiser and reduce the appearance of signs associated with aging.
Put a few drops of Broccoli Seed Oil across the palms of your hands and rub together to warm up the oil. Massage and press the oil on your face and neck.
For hair:
Broccoli Seed Oil contains Omega 9 fatty acids that help to give a glossy shine to hair. With a light consistency, penetrating into the hair easily, it does not leave the hair feeling greasy.
Put a couple of drops of Broccoli Seed Oil on the palms of your hands, rub your hands together, and distribute evenly throughout hair, or just on the problem areas. Use more or less oil depending on the length and thickness of your hair.
