Organic Avocado oil (cold-pressed) 

Create rich, nourishing skin and hair care products with our best quality Organic Avocado Oil (Cold-Pressed & Unrefined). Sourced from the nutrient-rich flesh of the Persea gratissima, this pure, golden-green 100% natural oil has a rich history dating back to the Aztecs and Mayans, who called it a "fruit of the gods."

It is unique compared to most other plant oils because it is extracted by pressing the creamy, green pulp surrounding the avocado pit, rather than the seed or pit itself.

Today, Avocado oil is a staple ingredient for natural skin and hair care formulations. It provides deep hydration, anti-aging benefits, and powerful anti-inflammatory effects.

Versatile Applications

Cold-pressed organic Avocado oil is perfect for crafting a wide range of DIY and professional personal care products, including: facial serums, eye creams, anti-aging night creams, rich body lotions, intensive body butters, barrier balms, aftershave creams, beard oils, nappy rash ointments, conditioning hair packs, artisanal soaps (adds a rich unsaponifiable fraction), aromatherapy, and luxurious massage blends.

Why Choose Our Organic Avocado Oil?

• 100% pure & sustainable: Certified organic, cold-pressed, and unrefined to preserve its natural potency, typical aroma, and vibrant nutrient profile.

• Nutrient-rich: Naturally packed with essential fatty acids, potassium, vitamin K, and a high concentration of vitamins A, B1, B2, D, and E.

• Fast-absorbing & lightweight: Despite its deeply hydrating properties, it sinks quickly into the skin and hair without leaving a heavy, greasy, or sticky residue.

• Deep absorption: Acts as an excellent carrier oil, helping other active ingredients better pass through the skin's selective barrier.

Key Benefits & Functionality:

Advanced Skincare & Anti-Aging

• Deep hydration: ideal for dehydrated, dull, mature, or exceptionally dry skin. It actively supports the skin’s breathable protective barrier that conserves moisture, and softens rough patches.

• Youthful radiance: rich in antioxidants and vitamin D, it neutralizes free radicals, protects skin from environmental stressors, and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

• Firming & elasticity: supports natural collagen production and replenishes palmitoleic acid—a vital lipid that naturally decreases as we age—giving skin a tighter, more toned appearance.

• Soothing relief: powerful anti-inflammatory properties calm irritated, red, or itchy skin, promoting a balanced and revitalized complexion.

Revitalizing Hair & Scalp Care

• Scalp health: soothes dry, itchy scalps and supports a healthy scalp microbiome for natural hair growth.

• Moisture conservation: Softens strands, tames stubborn frizz, and help retain moisture without weighing down the hair.

• Damage Prevention: Keeps hair fibers pliable, enhances natural shine, detangles curls, and helps prevent split ends.

How to use:

Use 1% to 100%. Because Avocado oil is thick and rich, 10% is usually sufficient for most serums, balms, body butters, beard oils, soaps. It blends well with lighter oils such as sweet almond and jojoba.

It is heat tolerant and can be used in phase 1 (fat stage) of oil-in-water emulsions, such as creams and lotions, shampoos and conditioners
