Walnut Oil
Walnut Oil
A warm amber oil pressed from walnut kernels — high in linoleic acid with a useful dose of omega-3, lending a smooth, conditioning richness to skin and hair blends. Hover any measure to see where walnut sits on the scale.
What it is
Walnut oil is pressed from the kernels of Juglans regia, the common English walnut. It's a warm amber oil, high in linoleic acid and carrying a useful share of omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid.
That makeup gives it a smooth, conditioning richness well-suited to dry skin and hair. As a tree-nut oil it is unsuitable for those with nut allergies, and its omega-3 means it is best kept fresh.
