Fragaria ananassa

Benefits

Tiny tiny tiny tiny tiny strawberry seeds - they may be small, but they're rich in oils!

Strawberry seeds, nothing is real

For Lush’s UK and Croatian manufacturing sites*, this oil is purchased in Europe through a supplier. It is made from the seeds that the fruit juice industry leaves out. They are ‘cold-pressed’ - the most natural method of obtaining oil from a plant’s fruits or seeds. No heat, solvents, or other techniques are applied to the raw materials except mechanical pressure.

*With several manufacturing sites across the globe, this information may vary depending on where your Lush products were made.

What are the benefits of strawberry seed oil?

The oil is moisturising and particularly soothing due to its high level of alpha-linoleic acid (omega 3). It is said to contain potent antioxidant components, which makes the oil very stable and, even more interestingly, helps the skin stay firm and healthy for longer by combating the oxidative effect of free radicals.
