Fruit and Berry Seed Oils

Fruit and Berry Seed Oils are gaining popularity due to their pleasant textures and notable variety of benefits. High in antioxidants and essential fatty acids, Fruit and Berry Seed Oils are wonderful for use in wide range of skincare products. They are particularly suited to anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and dry or damaged skin formulations. Fruit Seeds contain some of the most powerful sources of antioxidants found in nature. They are highly emolient, and usually light in texture, with subtle, fatty aromas. To make a great thing even better, the stability of these oils is exceptional. Strawberry Seed Oil, Red Raspberry Seed Oil and Cranberry Seed Oil, for instance, have average shelf lives of 2 years, making them excellent choices for use in creams, lotions, and other fragile formulations. FromNatureWithLove.com is proud to carry an extensive line of Fruit and Berry Seed Oils.

You are so right! The elder folks in my family go way back. The blackberries (or dewberry's as we call them) have got healing for digestion problems and arthritis.
Pomegranate also grows here in the south and is also great for arthritis. I drink it every chance I get.
It also has great color to add to soap etc.

Thank you,

Isn't it interesting when traditional home remedies coincide with modern science? I always think of the "apple a day" proverb when this kind of thing comes up. People have been reccomending apples for their health benefits for ages. Now we know that apples contain many healthful components, such as Vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber.

I am extremely interested in using some of the berry and fruit oils as additives in lotions, creams and salves. I just ordered three as additions to my bodycare line for the holiday season. Do you have an opinion as to whether their properties would survive being added to cold process soap at trace?

I think these are the kinds of natural ingredients that my customers will recognize and appreciate. Recently I made a muscle/joint salve using special ingredients including a therapeutic oil from Thailand and got great feedback. It seems to me the pomegranate oil in particular would be a good addition. Thanks for your good work.

While I haven't used any fruit seed oil soaps myself, I believe that these oils could be thought of in a similar way to other property rich oils such as Evening Primrose Oil. It is hard to say whether the positive effects of the oil will contact the skin for long enough to produce a result, even if the properties do survive the saponification process. That very debate added to the cost of fruit and berry seed oils may be why we don't see soaps made with those ingredients very often. Having said that, I have wondered the very same thing, and I am still very tempted to make myself a small batch of soap using fruit seed oils. After all, the best (and most fun) way to answer any question is with an experiment.

Agreed the fruit seed oils have some amazing qualities our magazine received some Blueberry,
Raspberry, Cranberry seed oils and powders we thought they were great quality and absorbed into the skin quite well and left no residue or oily feeling.
We were also able to add them to some of our baked goods as a functional food according to the paperwork we received with them.

Best of luck
