The Science: Broccoli Seed oil is rich in the omega-6-fatty acid, arachidonic acid, which is known to help soothe inflammation in the skin. It is composed of essential fatty acids as well as vitamins A and K. Vitamin A helps promote cell regeneration to maintain healthy skin. Vitamin K promotes wound healing and helps to suppress inflammation. Broccoli seed oil contains erucic acid, which is known to help soothe the skin, reduce redness and strengthen the moisture barrier. It protects from trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL).
The Story: Broccoli seed oil is a lightweight, non-greasy oil that quickly absorbs into the skin leaving behind a silky smooth skin feel.
