Escentia Moringa Kernel Oil - Cold Pressed is a cold-pressed carrier oil used in skincare, haircare, and body care formulations where a nourishing, conditioning plant oil is wanted. It is especially suited to dry-feeling or mature-looking skin and can also be used on nails, cuticles, and hair for added softness and shine. This is a carrier oil, not an essential oil, so it is used as a base oil on its own or in blends. It may solidify or form a thicker waxy layer in cool temperatures, which is a natural characteristic of the oil.

♡ Why we love it: This is one of those beautiful multi-use oils that feels quietly luxurious without being complicated. It brings a rich, caring feel to skin and hair routines, and the cold-pressed format makes it especially appealing for makers who want a more natural, minimally processed oil in their formulations.

Q: Why has my moringa oil become thick or partly solid?
A: This is normal. Moringa oil can solidify or form a waxy layer in cooler temperatures, and gentle warming will help return it to a more fluid state.

Q: Is Ben oil the same as moringa kernel oil?
A: Yes, Ben oil is another common name for moringa kernel oil.
