Description

Cold Pressed, Unrefined & Rich in Lycopene + Omegas

Cold-pressed from the tiny seeds inside ripe tomatoes, Tomato Seed Oil is a nutrient powerhouse that delivers visible results for both skin and hair. Packed with potent antioxidants like lycopene, beta-carotene, lutein, and zeaxanthin, plus vitamin E, phytosterols, and essential fatty acids (Omega-3, 6 & 9), this lightweight oil helps restore balance, protect against oxidative damage, and deeply nourish.

Research-backed data highlights lycopene as one of nature’s most effective free-radical scavengers,  it helps neutralize UV-induced oxidative stress, supports collagen integrity, and enhances skin brightness and elasticity. Its high linoleic acid (50–55%) content makes it ideal for acne-prone, irritated, or mature skin, while oleic and palmitic acids provide softening and repair.

For hair, Tomato Seed Oil strengthens the strands, nourishes the scalp, and reduces dryness and breakage. The naturally occurring tocopherols and carotenoids also protect against environmental aggressors, helping maintain shine, softness, and color vibrancy.
