Frequently asked questions
What is watermelon seed oil?
It is the fixed oil pressed from the seeds of the watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), also known as Kalahari melon or ootanga oil. It is a light, fast-absorbing emollient that leaves skin soft without a heavy feel.
Why choose the refined grade?
Refining gives a pale, almost odourless oil with a light texture, so it will not colour or scent your formulation. It suits facial oils, serums and lotions where a clean, neutral base is needed.
Where does this watermelon seed oil come from?
It comes from watermelon seeds of South African origin. The INCI name for cosmetic labels is Citrullus Lanatus Seed Oil.
What pack sizes are available?
From 500ml up to 25kg, all priced online. For regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote.
