Our exquisite organic Raspberry Seed CO2  Total Extract – a specialty carrier oil that is highly valued in body, skin care, and cosmetic use – is an exceptionally light, dry, non-occlusive oil that quickly moisturizes and nourishes the skin without a greasy or sticky feel.[1] It is filtered and unrefined.

A high antioxidant and phospholipid content gives this carrier oil its long shelf life[2],[3], much longer than cold pressed carrier oils. The low temperature CO2 process (up to 104˚F/40˚C) ensures a product that more closely resembles that which is found in the raw plant material.[4] In addition, CO2 carrier oils meet strict heavy metal requirements and contain no carbohydrates, protein, or inorganic salts.[5]

Raspberry Seed CO2 has an exceptionally high Vitamin E and pro-vitamin A content[6] and high concentrations of essential fatty acids: linoleic acid, α-linolenic acid, and oleic acid.[7] This nourishing seed oil is beneficial in cosmetic applications for supporting the skin’s moisture barrier and elasticity and improving the appearance of aging and exposure.

Our organic Raspberry Seed CO2 contains a small percentage of Rosemary Antioxidant CO2 – Organic to help maintain freshness.
