Black Cumin Seed Oil
Black Cumin Seed Oil (Traditional Nigella Sativa Carrier Oil)
Black Cumin Seed Oil (Nigella sativa) has a long history of traditional use across Egyptian and Middle Eastern folk practice, with black cumin seeds found in Tutankhamun's tomb. It's naturally rich in vitamins A, B and C, minerals including calcium, potassium, magnesium and zinc, and phytosterols.
Sourced from Egyptian seeds, this cold-pressed oil is traditionally valued in skincare and hair care for its nourishing, moisturising qualities, and its essential fatty acid content helps support lasting hydration.
Apply a few drops directly to skin or hair, or add a teaspoon to an oil cleansing blend. For formulations, blend at 5–15% into moisturisers, creams or hair products.
Botanical Name: Nigella sativa (Black Cumin) Seed Oil.
Safety information: Always dilute this oil to 5–15% before use — do not apply undiluted. Documented case reports describe serious skin reactions associated with topical black seed oil, particularly when used undiluted; patch test before first use and discontinue immediately, seeking medical attention, if a rash, blistering or widespread reaction develops. See the Safety Data Sheet and Ingredient & Allergen Statement in the Product Documents section below for full detail.
