Product Description
Sesame Seed Oil, Refined. An ancient treasure in the world of cosmetics, Sesame Seed Oil has stood the test of time for its numerous skin and hair benefits.

Sesame Seed Oil is a traditional favourite in massage, prized for its smooth glide and skin-conditioning feel.

Frequently asked questions
Is refined sesame oil the same as toasted sesame oil?
No. This is a pressed and refined oil from raw sesame seeds, so it is pale with a light, neutral scent. Toasted sesame oil is made from roasted seeds and is dark and strongly flavoured, which suits cooking but not most skin care.
Can refined sesame oil be used in food?
Yes, it is suitable for food use, subject to the usual formulation considerations. Sesame is one of the 14 major food allergens, so a food allergens declaration is available.
Where does this sesame oil come from?
It comes from sesame seeds (Sesamum indicum) of Mexican origin. The INCI name is Sesamum Indicum Seed Oil.
What pack sizes are available?
Available in 1kg and 5kg packs, all priced online.
