Known as a natural alternative to silicones in skin and hair care, broccoli seed oil is ideal for revitalizing and restoring your complexion. While long-term studies are still ongoing, initial research shows that this ingredient is bursting with potential, helping with everything from skin texture and pigmentation to barrier function and reducing cell damage.

One thing is clear: broccoli seed oil delivers results and is suitable for all skin types, especially those struggling with dryness, damaged areas, or looking to reduce the effects of skin aging. Just take a look at some of the benefits:

Non-comedogenic : This natural skin care ingredient is lightweight and non-pore-clogging, meaning it’s suitable even for oily and acne-prone skin. You can use it for day and night care. It absorbs very quickly, making it perfect for those on the go and anyone who likes to layer individual products.

Rich in antioxidants : Broccoli seed oil is packed with antioxidants, making this natural ingredient a true skin food. Brassica Oleracea is particularly rich in sulforaphane, which helps reduce inflammation and neutralize toxins. This oil is also a source of beta-carotene, which is converted into vitamin A. These additional antioxidant properties help fight free radicals, brighten your complexion, speed up the healing process, and protect against damage and premature aging.

Rich in fatty acids : Not only does broccoli seed oil protect against premature aging and prevent acne, it is also rich in fatty acids such as erucic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid. With a high content of omega fatty acids (over 50% omega 9!), broccoli seed oil is ideal for protecting the skin’s barrier function. Broccoli seed oil helps maintain healthy, hydrated skin, and the fatty acids create a barrier that retains moisture while penetrating deeply and providing long-lasting care. It is great for improving skin texture, and is also soothing, with arachidonic acid that soothes irritation and reduces unpleasant conditions such as itching and tightness.

Mimics synthetic silicones : While ingredients like dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane are fairly common in makeup and skincare products, they don’t readily biodegrade, meaning they linger long after you wash them off in nature. With a silky, lightweight texture, broccoli seed oil is a great alternative to silicones because it offers the same feel and results while easily breaking down in the environment. It also allows your skin to breathe. Plus, this oil adds essential nutrients like vitamins C, A, and K to your skin, meaning it’s great for your skin and better for the environment.
