Flaxseed Oil – 500ml
What is Flaxseed Oil?
Flaxseed Oil, also known as Linseed Oil, is a nutrient-dense oil cold-pressed from the seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum). This golden oil is valued for its exceptionally high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids, especially alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). It’s widely used in skincare and haircare products to soothe, moisturize, and support overall skin health. Because of its lightweight texture and fast absorption, Flaxseed Oil works well in both facial and body formulations.
