Safflower Oil (Carthamus tinctorius) - Refined

One property of safflower oil that distinguishes it from many other carrier oils is its high linoleic acid content. Safflower oil is exceptionally rich in linoleic acid, comprising up to 70-80% of its fatty acid composition.

Linoleic acid is an omega-6 fatty acid known for its lightweight texture and non-comedogenic properties, making safflower oil particularly suitable for oily and acne-prone skin types.

Linoleic acid helps to regulate sebum production, unclog pores, and maintain skin hydration without leaving a greasy residue.

Additionally, it possesses anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe and calm irritated skin, making safflower oil an excellent choice for sensitive and reactive skin types.

Antimicrobial properties are provided for by Phenolic Compounds.
