What Is Italica Broccoli Seed Oil?
Italica broccoli seed oil, also known as Brassica oleracea italica seed oil and broccoli seed oil, is a pressed oil extracted from the seeds of the Italica variety of broccoli plant. It is a good source of antioxidants, including vitamins A, C, and K.
In addition to these antioxidant properties, it also contains fatty acids, among them oleic, linoleic, linolenic, and stearic acids. These qualities make it an excellent skin and hair conditioning ingredient, not to mention the role linoleic and linolenic acids play in preserving skin’s barrier. One supplier describes broccoli seed oil as lightweight and non-greasy, making it preferred for a larger variety of skin types over more highly saturated oils such as coconut.
Italic broccoli seed oil has been deemed safe as used in skin care by the independent Cosmetic Ingredient Review panel. Its highest usage level in cosmetics is reported at 3%. In its raw form, it is a golden-colored oil
