Hazelnut Oil

Category: Botanical oils, butters, waxes, and macerates

This oil, like macadamia and avocado oils, is fast absorbing. It has a gently sweet, nutty aroma, although some hazelnut varieties produce an entirely neutral scent, and it offers a refined, silky texture. Its vitamin E content lends notable stability.

Thanks to its triterpenes, it is well suited to oily skin with sluggish circulation and a tendency to breakouts, to sensitive skin prone to redness, and to skin that lacks moisture.

With a distinctive profile of phytosterols, it helps regulate sebum production while softening and hydrating the skin. It is a key ingredient in treatments formulated for varicose veins, broken capillaries, and cellulite.
