Available in 30ml, 50 ml and 100ml with dropper, and 250ml, 500ml variants without dropper Why Our Cold Pressed Extraction Matters Most commercial oils use "Refined" or "Heat-Extracted" methods that reach temperatures over 200°C. While this produces more oil, it "kills" the live enzymes and degrades the delicate fatty acids you’re paying for. Our process is different: Zero Heat, Zero Chemicals: We use a mechanical press that keeps temperatures below 40°C. This ensures we never use harsh chemical solvents like Hexane to strip the oil from the seed. We don't 'process' our oil; we protect it. By using traditional mechanical cold-pressing, we skip the harsh chemicals and high heat that ruin standard oils. The result is a raw, nutrient-dense elixir that retains 100% of its ancient healing properties for your heart and your skin.

A: Camelina oil comes from the Camelina sativa plant. It’s an ancient oilseed known as "Gold of Pleasure" due to its vibrant colour and high nutrient density. It is prized in both clean beauty and holistic nutrition for its unique balance of Omega-3s and Vitamin E. Q: Is Camelina Oil better than Flaxseed Oil? A: While both are high in Omega-3, Camelina is significantly more shelf-stable and has a higher smoke point (475°F). Unlike flaxseed oil, which goes rancid quickly and cannot be heated, Camelina's high Vitamin E content protects it from oxidation, making it safer for both cooking and skincare. Beauty & Skincare FAQ Q: Will Camelina Oil clog my pores? A: No. Camelina oil has a comedogenic rating of 0-1, meaning it is highly unlikely to clog pores. It is a "dry oil" that absorbs quickly, making it suitable for oily, acne-prone, and sensitive skin types. Q: Can I use Camelina Oil for eczema or rosacea? A: Yes. Because it is rich in Alpha-Linolenic Acid (Omega-3), it helps repair the skin's lipid barrier and reduce inflammation. It is often used to soothe redness, itching, and dryness associated with sensitive skin conditions. Q: How do I use it in my hair routine? A: You can use it as a pre-shampoo treatment to hydrate the scalp or apply 1–2 drops to damp ends after washing to seal in moisture and prevent frizz without weighing hair down. Health & Nutrition FAQ Q: What does Camelina Oil taste like? A: It has a delicate, fresh, and slightly nutty flavour, often described as a mix of almond and snap peas. It is much milder and more palatable than the bitter aftertaste often found in flax or hemp oils. Q: Can I cook with Cold-Pressed Camelina Oil? A: Absolutely. One of its "superpower" features is a high smoke point of 245°C (475°F). This makes it one of the few heart-healthy Omega-3 oils safe for sautéing, roasting, and searing without breaking down into harmful trans fats. Q: Is your Camelina Oil hexane-free? A: Yes. Our oil is mechanically cold-pressed without the use of chemical solvents like hexane. This ensures the oil remains 100% pure, organic, and safe for internal and external use.
