Minimum Shelf Life: 3 Years
Daikon Seed Oil is a remarkable carrier oil that has recently gained popularity in the beauty industry. Obtained from the seeds of the daikon radish, which is organically cultivated by farmers in the Willamette Valley area of Oregon, this practically odorless and light golden oil has a host of benefits and a wide range of applications.
The oil has a unique mixture of fatty acids, including oleic acid, stearic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and erucic acid. It's the latter that gives our Abyssinian Seed Oil its rich, velvety texture and high absorption qualities. Erucic acid is known to extend an oil's shelf life by delaying oxidation.
Daikon Seed Oil is an excellent alternative to synthetic silicones and emollients for both skin and hair care formulas that require a non-oily, silky feel. It has a delicate slip and moderate absorption, making it ideal for massage and body oils. It is also known to enhance the skin barrier by protecting the skin and preventing transepidermal water loss, thus making it a popular ingredient in cleansing balms, hydrating masks, facial serums, beard oils, and day/night creams.
Moreover, Daikon Seed Oil has been found to benefit hair by strengthening hair follicles and adding non-oily shine to hair strands. Compared to other natural and high-viscosity silicones, Daikon Seed Oil tested well against, if not outperformed, in both hair strength and hair shine.
Daikon Seed Oil is a natural alternative to synthetic ingredients that do not compromise the quality and performance of products. It's an excellent choice for formulators looking for natural alternatives to synthetic ingredients. With its many benefits and applications, Daikon Seed Oil is an exciting new addition to the world of carrier oils.
