Product Overview
In topical preparations, it supports the elasticity of the skin and may improve the appearance of aging and sun-exposure. In addition, our Pomegranate Seed CO2 also contains CLnA (conjugated alpha-linolenic acid) isomers, linoleic acid and oleic acid.[2] With a variety of antioxidant and beneficial constituents, it is ideal in combination with other carrier oils for use in skin care products and formulations.
Please note that the low temperature CO2 extraction process (up to 104˚F/40˚C) for carrier oils ensures a product that more closely resembles that which is found in the raw plant material and has a longer shelf life than cold processed carrier oils.[4] In addition, CO2 carrier oils meet strict heavy metal requirements and contain no carbohydrates, protein, or inorganic salts.[5]
Our organic Pomegranate Seed CO2 contains a small percentage of Rosemary Antioxidant CO2 – Organic to help maintain freshness.
