Lingonberry Seed Oil

Lingonberry Seed Oil - Pure Natural Oil for Skincare

Extracted from the tiny seeds of the lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea), a treasured Nordic berry, this organically crafted oil is cold-pressed to preserve its natural qualities. Prized for its unique fatty acid composition and rich nutrient profile, lingonberry seed oil has become a sought-after ingredient in premium natural cosmetic formulations.

About This Oil

Lingonberry seed oil is cold-pressed from the seeds of wild lingonberries, also known as cowberries or mountain cranberries, which grow in the pristine northern forests of Scandinavia and other Arctic regions. This organically crafted oil typically has a golden yellow to light orange appearance and a subtle, fresh berry scent that adds a pleasant sensory element to cosmetic formulations.

Lingonberries thrive in the harsh climates of Nordic regions, and the oil extracted from their seeds reflects the resilience of these remarkable berries. The cold-pressing process ensures that the oil retains its naturally occurring nutrients and fatty acids, making it a premium choice for natural skincare formulators.

This oil has excellent stability compared to many other seed oils, thanks to its natural content of tocotrienols and tocopherols (vitamin E compounds), which act as natural preservatives. Lingonberry seed oil represents a sustainable use of berry seeds that would otherwise be discarded during juice and jam production, making it an environmentally conscious choice for cosmetic applications.
