Organic Sunflower Oil HO refined
Use of organic sunflower oil in the cosmetics industry
Only specific, naturally bred sunflower varieties with a very high content of monounsaturated oleic acid are used to produce high-oleic organic sunflower oil. Compared to the original, linoleic-acid-rich version, high-oleic sunflower oil has even better spreading properties. Used in creams and ointments as a base oil, high-oleic sunflower oil is said to form a protective film over the skin that supports dry and mature skin.
Did you know?
Sunflower oil is the fatty oil obtained from the peeled, partially ground seeds of the sunflower (Helianthus annuus) through mechanical cold pressing and filtration.
The sunflower originates from North America and spread further south. The Incas worshiped the sunflower as the face of God. At the end of the 16th century, it was brought to Europe by Spanish sailors. The sunflower plant, with its roughly hairy stem, grows between one and two meters tall. Its bud turns toward the sunlight. During a sunny day, it follows the sun’s path from east to west—a trait called heliotropism. The distinctive blooming, yellow composite flower usually faces east.
