Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Locks In Moisture
Traditional Use
Black currant seed oil has traditional use in European herbalism for its anti-inflammatory properties. The hydrogenated version was developed to stabilize the oil's beneficial fatty acids and phenolic compounds for use in modern skincare formulations.
