About this product
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A clear to slight yellow oil with virtually no odour obtained by expeller pressing the ripe seeds of the passion flower. Because it is a wholly natural product, there are frequently variations with the colour and odour due to natural variation and climate change. Therefore, this oil has then been refined, bleached and deodorised to some degree, to improve the quality of the oil, to be more acceptable and consistent. It has been winterized to keep it fluid.
- Use 1% to 100%.
- Oil soluble so cannot be used in water only products. It can be used in small amounts in water based gels that will hold it in suspension.
- Heat stable so can be used in Stage 1 (fat stage) when making creams and lotions.
Blend Passionflower Seed Oil with Olive Oil and Plai Essential Oil. Combined with good massage techniques, it is an excellent blend for after sports.
