Sensioil® LHO

INCI Name: Linum usitatissimum seed oil

Flaxseed oil, derived from the seeds of Linum usitatissimum, is widely recognized for its high content of essential fatty acids, such as omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9. This lipid profile provides nourishing and restorative properties, helping to maintain the integrity of the skin barrier, promoting hydration, elasticity, and an improved skin appearance. It offers a light texture and a soft feel, making it a valued ingredient in cosmetic formulations designed for skin care and balance.

In hair care applications, it nourishes and strengthens hair strands, helping to reduce dryness and promoting shine and softness. Its versatility allows it to be used in various types of formulations, delivering functional performance and long-lasting benefits for both skin and hair, making it an effective choice for products focused on nourishment and intensive care.
