• Meadowfoam seed oil is a light golden and generally odorless oil which is extracted from the seeds of the meadowfoam plant. This plant received its name due to the fact that when in bloom, it resembles the white foam found whirling atop the ocean's massive and powerful waves.
• Meadowfoam seed oil is the perfect addition to your skin care routine if you are looking for clearer, healthier, and silkier skin. It is an oil which promises to moisturize and rejuvenate in ways that no other oil can.
• Meadowfoam seed oil has no trouble whatsoever being absorbed by the skin. It is actually absorbed rather quickly, and leaves the skin feeling light and fresh as opposed to thick or greasy. This is a wonderful quality which means that it can be applied either in the morning or at night. It also helps to add strength and shine to hair, while simultaneously battles against dryness of the scalp which is made brittle by the everyday process of some shampoos.
• In the same way that meadowfoam seed oil condition hair, it can also condition and thicken eyelashes too. Apply it as you would your mascara and leave it on overnight. It will hydrate your lashes and encourage them to grow, making your lashes look longer and thicker.
• Like jojoba oil, meadowfoam seed oil is slightly waxy and closely resembles human sebum. When used in skin care, it naturally helps your skin to effectively form a barrier to lock in moisture and deliver nutrients deep into your epidermis. Meadowfoam seed oil is a popular mature skin due to its nourishing, high antioxidant composition.
