Everything You Need To Know
A yellow to amber colour oil with a mild, slightly nutty aroma that has been cold pressed from the organic seeds of the fruit off the Pracaxi tree from South America.
- Use 1% to 100%.
- Oil soluble so cannot be used in water only products. It can be used in small amounts in water based gels that will hold it in suspension.
- Not heat stable so is best used in Stage 3 (below 40°C) when making creams and lotions.
Sacha Inchi Oil blends very well with heavier, greasier oils like Shea Butter Oil where it makes the final blend feel lighter and more elegant on the skin.

Skin Care
- Sacha Inchi Oil is an excellent source of Omega 3, that is suitable for all skin types.
- It’s a very good emollient which is beneficial for dry, itchy, irritated skin on both the body and scalp as it is calming and soothing. This is also beneficial to eczema prone and psoriasis prone skin. It reduces TransEpidermal Water Loss (TEWL) without feeling greasy or heavy on the skin.
- Acne prone skin will benefit as Sacha Inchi Oil is non greasy and sinks in very quickly. It will help to even the skin tone.
- On mature skin, it can help refine fine lines and wrinkles whilst softening the skin. The naturally occurring Vitamin E content is a good antioxidant to combat free radical damage. Use in anti aging serums, gels, creams and lotions.
Hair Care
- Sacha Inchi Oil softens the hair shaft, reducing brittleness and breakages.
- It is excellent at locking moisture into the hair shaft due to its high levels of Omega 6.
- It also soothes an irritated scalp and leaves no sticky afterfeel.
