Meadowfoam seed oil is a natural vegetable oil sourced from the seeds of the meadowfoam plant, limnanthes alba, native to North America. It's a lightweight, clear oil that's highly stable because of its unique fatty acid composition, primarily composed of long-chain fatty acids like eicosenoic acid. Meadowfoam seed oil is sought after in skincare and haircare for its excellent hydrating and conditioning properties that help to lock in moisture, maintain skin and hair hydration and promote softness and suppleness without a heavy or greasy feel. It also has antioxidant qualities that can help protect skin and hair from environmental damage.
