Cucumber oil contains Alpha and Gamma Tocopherol, and Gamma Tocotrienol which are natural antioxidants. It also contains various phytosterols such as Campesterol, Stimgasterol, and Beta sitosterol.

Phytosterols are also known for their ability to nourish and stimulate skin cells, and to encourage regeneration of healthy cells.

Love this beautiful cucumber seed oil!
Soothes and strengthens the skin barrier, and promotes cellular regeneration. Great for scalp health and hair, too!
Recommend highly.
Is awesome, really silky alone, has no strong scent which is nice, my sister LOVES the product I used it in, so I'll be needing more soon I think ..... 😊
