Wheatgerm Carrier Oil

(tritcum sativum) Wheatgerm oil is made from the "germ" of the wheat - the heart of it.

The grain consists of three parts - the husk, the germ and the endosperm - and it is the germ that is used in the manufacture of the oil.

Has excellent keeping properties.

Contains a high vitamin E content for a carrier oil.

Richly textured oil high in Vitamin E.

Often used on dry, mature skins.

The deep colour is caused by the presence of carotenoids, precursors of vitamin A.
