Description
Chia Seed Virgin Carrier Oil gives skincare formulations a soft, natural feel with a gentle seed-like character. It spreads smoothly, sits between light and medium in weight, and leaves a finish that remains quietly present on the skin.
It suits face oils, serums, creams and targeted skincare blends where the carrier oil should feel thoughtful and ingredient-led rather than plain. Its virgin character can add identity to simple formulations, but it also needs balance in delicate products. Used too heavily, Chia Seed Virgin Carrier Oil may leave an oily trace or bring an earthy note that distracts from a cleaner fragrance or lighter finish.
Shelf life: Users can expect a shelf life of 18 months with proper storage conditions (cool, out of direct sunlight). Refrigeration after opening is recommended.
