Black Currant Oil is a nutrient-rich botanical oil cold-pressed from the seeds of Ribes nigrum. Valued in modern cosmetic formulations, this lightweight yet deeply nourishing oil is known for its balanced fatty acid profile, making it a versatile ingredient for both skincare and haircare products.
With a smooth texture and fast absorption, Black Currant Oil integrates easily into serums, creams, lotions, hair oils, and scalp treatments. Its naturally occurring essential fatty acids help support the skin’s comfort and softness while enhancing the overall sensory experience of cosmetic formulations.
Cosmetic Grade Black Currant Oil is widely used by formulators seeking a plant-based oil that complements sensitive, dry, or mature skin formulations without overpowering fragrance or heaviness.
