Wheatgerm Oil - 100ml
Wheatgerm Oil — 100ml
Triticum vulgare — Cold-pressed from wheat germ sourced in the USA.
A vitamin E powerhouse — Wheatgerm Oil is one of the richest natural sources of vitamin E, packed with antioxidants and vitamins A and D, making it a highly effective ingredient for mature, dry, and damaged skin formulations. It helps protect the skin from oxidative stress, supports cell regeneration, and improves skin elasticity. It is commonly used as an active addition to blends and formulations rather than as a standalone massage oil, due to its rich, heavy texture.
Skin Profile
Very rich and heavy. Best used as an active addition at 5–10% in blends. Deeply nourishing with a rich, slightly sticky finish. Its exceptional vitamin E content makes it one of the most effective natural antioxidant additions to any formulation — and a natural shelf-life extender for blends prone to oxidation.
Key Constituents
The richest natural source of vitamin E (tocopherols) of any carrier oil. Vitamins A and D for cell renewal and skin repair. Essential fatty acids including linoleic and oleic acid. Natural antioxidants that extend the shelf life of blends. Contains gluten — not suitable for those with wheat or gluten allergies.
