Cnoidal Wave Perilla Seed Facial Oil is a unique skincare product made from cold-pressed, refined organic perilla seed oil. Current cosmetic research suggests that perilla seed oil may help soothe the inflammation associated with rosacea and dermatitis, offering potential relief for sensitive skin conditions. Perilla seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, primarily the omega-3 fatty acid ALA (α-linolenic acid, C18:3n-3), which typically comprises 50%–60% of the oil.
After extracting the oil from the seed, it undergoes a refining process, resulting in a clear, light yellow-colored oil with a bland odor. The makeup of essential fatty acids in perilla seed oil is believed to impart softness to the skin and contribute positively to overall skin health. The oil’s high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids helps to restore the skin’s natural barrier, providing nourishment and hydration.
Perilla seed oil has also demonstrated antiseptic properties, which may aid in fighting bacteria that contribute to acne and rosacea. Its unique combination of anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and hydrating properties makes it an excellent choice for sensitive and reactive skin.
