Kiwi Seed Oil

Kiwi Seed Oil (Actinidia chinensis)

Kiwi Seed Oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing carrier oil cold-pressed from the tiny black seeds of the Actinidia chinensis fruit. Exceptionally rich in alpha-linolenic acid (Omega-3), vitamins C and E, and natural antioxidants, it is one of nature’s most potent oils for restoring suppleness, elasticity, and youthful vibrancy to the skin.

With its delicate, silky texture and faintly nutty aroma, Kiwi Seed Oil absorbs beautifully without greasiness, making it ideal for facial serums, eye treatments, and hair care formulations. Its unique balance of essential fatty acids helps strengthen the skin’s moisture barrier while calming irritation and protecting against environmental stress.
