Used in the cosmetics and skincare industry primarily due to its high concentration of essential unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic acid and linolenic acid, along with antioxidants. It helps moisturize and repair damaged skin, restore dry and irritated skin, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the skin's natural barrier. Suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Commonly found in facial moisturizers, night creams, serums, and deep hydration products. Also used in hair care formulations to strengthen hair, reduce dryness and frizz, and improve scalp health for smoother, softer hair.

In health applications, it serves as an ingredient in dietary supplements to support skin health from within, offering antioxidant properties that help mitigate skin cell damage from UV radiation and environmental pollution. Popular in natural and organic cosmetic formulations for its nourishing benefits.
