Description
Saffron seed oil is a natural vegetable oil, rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid, which helps restore the skin's barrier functions, moisturizes and softens it. It nourishes and softens dry and sensitive skin, promotes healing of minor damage and reduces inflammation. The oil has a light texture, absorbs quickly, without leaving a greasy shine, so it is often used in creams, lotions, masks, lip balms and hair products. It also has antioxidant properties.
