Red Raspberry Seed oil now in EFL


Enriching Face Lotion (EFL) is the most popular Skinflint product. It contains a beautiful blend of oils - jojoba, apricot kernel, macadamia and now, red raspberry seed.

Red Raspberry Seed oil is extraordinarily high in Omega-3 and Omega 6 fatty acids and is a superb anti-oxidant. It contains 83% essential fatty acids, the highest of all skin care oils.

Red Raspberry Oil is known especially for its prevention of gingivitis, rashes, eczema and other skin lesions.  It is useful in skin creams, bath oils, and tooth paste. Raspberry seed oil is emollient, lubricating, conditioning, creates a lipid barrier providing protection to the skin and provides moisture retention for the skin.  Its anti-inflammatory properties are greater than those of better known oils such as virgin Avocado Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Hazelnut Oil and Wheatgerm Oil. (Oomah, et al 2000.)

Red Raspberry Seed Oil may act as a broad-spectrum UV-A and UV-B shield.  It has shown an SPF of between 28 and 50 and thus is a valuable ingredient in natural sunblocks and sunscreens.  It has a long shelf life because of its high phospholipid content, and may increase the stability of other carrier oils when blended with them. (Oomah, et al 2000.)

Still at the same amazingly low price of only $25 for a generous 125g. Convenient flip top tube.
