Reasons to love cucumber seed oil
With a high amount of linoleic and good amount of alpha linolenic fatty acids, cucumber seed oil provides a naturally balanced dose of essential fatty acids — for barrier supporting, anti-inflammatory goodness.
It also has a good hit of protective phytosterols and tocopherols (vitamin E).
But it’s greatest quality: it’s addictive, fresh, natural, cucumber scent. It’s a favourite face oil.
INCI: Cucumis Sativus Oil
