Product description:
Our partner Natural Plant Products (NPP), located in the heart of Oregon's scenic Willamette Valley, offers Meadowfoam Seed Oil. As pioneers of sustainable agriculture, farmers in this region were looking for ways to regenerate the land from grass seed production, which led to the introduction of meadowfoam crops. They recognized the benefits of Meadowfoam Seed Oil and founded NPP, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting local farmers.
Meadowfoam Seed Oil is a testament to meticulous scientific refinement and is characterized by its distinctive fatty acid profile. It has a very high monounsaturated fatty acid content, and these double bonds are also very close to the functional group. The steric hindrance makes these double bonds much less susceptible to oxidation, which is why Meadowfoam Seed Oil is the most oxidation-stable natural oil found in cosmetics. The natural tocopherol content supports this, and this combination allows Meadowfoam Seed Oil to further increase the oxidation stability of a more complex oil blend with a fatty phase.
In addition to its technical benefits, Meadowfoam Seed Oil offers a luxurious skin feel and proven efficacy in reducing transepidermal water loss, making it a top choice for various cosmetic products, e.g. lip care. Due to its resistance to external influences, it is suitable for a wide range of different cosmetic formulations.
This oil, which is extracted from the enchanting white flowers of the meadowfoam plant, not only promises effectiveness, but is also suitable for natural cosmetics as it is both COSMOS and NATRUE certified.
