History: Pomegranate seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the pomegranate fruit (Punica granatum), which has been cultivated for thousands of years in the Mediterranean region, Asia, and the Middle East. The pomegranate is often referred to as a "superfruit" due to its rich nutrient profile and numerous health benefits.
The extraction process typically involves cold-pressing the seeds to preserve the oil's natural nutrients and beneficial properties. Pomegranate seed oil has been used in traditional medicine and cosmetic practices for its healing and rejuvenating effects.
In modern times, pomegranate seed oil is highly valued in the skincare and haircare industries for its powerful antioxidant and anti-aging properties. Its ability to deeply nourish and protect the skin and hair makes it a popular ingredient in natural and organic beauty products.
