About this product
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A green oil with very little aroma made by hot maceration of organically grown Chickweed herb (GMO free and not irradiated) in High Oleic Sunflower Oil at a dry herb to oil ratio of 1:6. Then 0.1% Rosemary Antioxidant is added to keep the oil stable from oxidation and rancidity.
- 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.
Chickweed Oil works very well with Papaya Seed Oil for irritable skin situations such as when a new hair weave has been put in.
