Coconut fractionated Oil

Fractionated Coconut Oil - Cocos nucifera

Fractionated coconut oil is a light, fast-absorbing version of traditional coconut oil. Unlike virgin coconut oil, which is solid at low temperatures and contains long-chain fatty acids, fractionated coconut oil undergoes a distillation process that removes these fatty acids, resulting in a stable oil that remains liquid at room temperature. Perfect for natural cosmetics and aromatherapy.

With a silky and transparent texture, it absorbs quickly without greasy residue. It is an excellent carrier oil for diluting essential oils and cosmetic preparations. Odorless and neutral, it won’t interfere with fragrances or other active ingredients.

✨ Key Properties

• 💧 Moisturizing & emollient: Hydrates deeply without clogging pores.
• 🌿 Light & fast-absorbing: Leaves skin soft and non-greasy.
• 🛡️ Antimicrobial & anti-inflammatory: Balances and protects sensitive skin.
• ⏳ Stable & long-lasting: Extended shelf life, less prone to oxidation.

💆 Common Uses

Ideal as a carrier oil for aromatherapy, massages, skin and hair care. Widely used in balms, lotions, make-up removers, and light conditioners. Its quick absorption enhances the penetration of active ingredients.
