Hazelnut Oil (Organic & Cold Pressed)

What is Hazelnut Oil (Organic & Cold Pressed?

Hazelnut oil (INCI: Corylus Avellana Seed Oil) is an exceptionally light "dry oil". This means that it is absorbed directly by the skin without leaving a greasy film. This makes it the ideal oil for combination, oily and sensitive skin.

Where does Hazelnut oil come from? 

Our organic hazelnut oil is extracted from the nuts of the Hazel tree (botanical name: Corylus avellana), a large shrub or small tree that is native to Europe, including the Netherlands!

How is Hazelnut Oil made?

First, the raw, organic hazelnuts are carefully selected and peeled. They are then pressed mechanically at low temperatures. No heat or chemical solvents are used. This pure, mechanical process ensures that the delicate nutrients, such as Vitamin E and essential fatty acids, are optimally preserved in the final oil.
