What is Walnut Oil (Organic and Cold-pressed)?

Walnut oil is a rich, nourishing carrier oil. The oil provides intensive care for skin and hair and is known for its restorative properties, and is particularly suitable for dry or mature skin.

Walnut oil is cold-pressed from organic Juglans Regia walnuts. The INCI name (the official ingredient name) is Juglans Regia Seed Oil. The cold pressing of the oil ensures that the valuable nutrients, such as fatty acids and antioxidants, are preserved in the oil so that your skin and hair benefit from them as much as possible.

Benefits

Deeply Nourishing & Restorative

Walnut oil is exceptionally rich in essential fatty acids, such as omega-3 (alpha-linolenic acid) and omega-6. These fatty acids are crucial for repairing and strengthening the skin barrier. The oil hydrates intensively and helps improve skin elasticity, making it feel soft and supple.

Protects against aging

Walnut oil is bursting with antioxidants, particularly Vitamin E and polyphenols. These powerful substances protect the skin against damage from free radicals (such as UV radiation and pollution), which helps slow down the skin aging process and reduce fine lines.

Nourishes hair & scalp

This rich oil works wonders for dry, damaged or brittle hair. It penetrates deeply to nourish and strengthen the hair, and gives a beautiful shine. It is also beneficial for a dry scalp and can help reduce dandruff.

Rich Massage Oil

Although it is a fuller oil, walnut oil absorbs well and is a fantastic base for a nourishing massage. The light, pleasant nutty scent combines perfectly with essential oils for a relaxing or therapeutic massage.

How do you use it?

Use Walnut Oil as a carrier oil in combination with your favorite essential oils, as an ingredient in your DIY skincare products, as a rich facial serum or as a nourishing hair mask.

Hair mask

Warm a few drops of the oil in the palm of your hand and massage into your hair and scalp. Let it absorb for a few hours or overnight and then wash your hair as you always do.

Facial serum (night)

Apply 2 to 3 drops to cleansed skin in the evening to benefit from the intensively nourishing and restorative properties of Walnut Oil. For very dry skin it can also be used in the morning.

What makes it so special?

Walnut oil is a powerful, rich oil that stands out for its high content of omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants. It provides deep nourishment and repair for (mature) skin and hair. The oil combines fantastically with your favorite essential oils and other DIY ingredients.
