Absolute Aromas Wheatgerm Oil - 150ml

Wheatgerm Oil is a rich carrier oil used primarily for skincare and hair care. It's known for its nourishing, moisturizing, and antioxidant properties, making it ideal for dry, damaged, or mature skin, and for improving hair health.

We recommend a maximum dilution of 10% Wheatgerm Oil to 90% of another base or carrier oil. This helps manage its thick consistency and allows for easier application.

While nourishing, Wheatgerm Oil can be quite rich. It's advisable to perform a patch test on a small area of skin first, especially if you have sensitive skin. Diluting it with a milder carrier oil is also recommended.

Individuals with a wheat allergy must avoid this oil entirely, as it is derived from wheat germ. Always check ingredients if you have known allergies.

This Wheatgerm Oil is sourced from Argentina and is 100% natural, vegan, GMO-free, and cruelty-free, extracted via a cold-pressed method.

A less refined oil means it has undergone fewer processing steps, resulting in a darker color. This typically indicates a higher concentration of natural nutrients and active compounds, such as Vitamin E and antioxidants.

When stored properly in a cool, dark place, Wheatgerm Oil usually has a shelf life of 1-2 years. Always refer to the expiry date on the product packaging for the most accurate information.

Discontinue use immediately. Ensure you do not have a wheat allergy. Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before further application. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional.

Dilute the Wheatgerm Oil further with a lighter carrier oil (e.g., jojoba, almond, grapeseed oil) at a ratio of 10% Wheatgerm Oil or less.

The natural nutty aroma is characteristic. Try blending it with essential oils that have a scent you prefer, or use it in applications where the aroma is less noticeable, such as overnight hair treatments.

This is normal for less refined oils and indicates high nutrient content. Ensure the product is stored correctly in a cool, dark place. Separation can often be resolved by gently warming the bottle in a bowl of warm water (do not heat directly) and shaking well.
