The use of Organic Amaranth oil in the cosmetics industry

The cosmetics industry uses our Organic Amaranth oil in creams, skin and hair oils, soaps and shampoos, massage oils, decorative cosmetics, sunscreens, and anti-aging products. Often, Organic Amaranth oil is used as a base oil for products against dry, sensitive, or allergy-damaged skin, as it absorbs quickly and also has a replenishing effect. It supports skin regeneration and natural cell protection. Moisture level and skin elasticity are said to improve.

These positive effects are mainly due to the high content of squalene, a skin-related lipid, and phytosterols, which are said to bind moisture in the skin. Additionally, Organic Amaranth oil is characterized by a balance of various unsaturated fatty acids.

Interesting facts

The English spelling "Amaranth oil" is mostly used instead of the Duden-approved "Amaranthöl". Actually, only the red pigment at the end is spelled with an "h".

Originally, amaranth comes from eastern and central South America and is therefore also called Inca wheat. The hanging purple-red flowers of the amaranth contain the small black seeds from which we cold-press our Organic Amaranth oil.
