Home Page > Carrier Oil Profiles > Watermelon Seed Oil Watermelon Seed Oil
Botanical Name: Citrullus vulgaris Aroma: Faint. Slightly Nutty. Viscosity: Light. Absorption/Feel: Penetrates Well. Color: Yellow. Shelf Life: Indefinite/Highly Stable
Notes: Watermelon Seed Oil (WSO) is a very nourishing yet light oil with good absorption. It is a good choice for use with oily skin but can be effective with all skin types. Its viscosity, mild aroma and indefinite shelf life make it a good all-purpose carrier oil for use in aromatherapy. Other thicker oils and oils with shorter shelf lives can be blended with Watermelon Seed Oil to lighten their texture and aroma and extend their overall shelf life.

General Safety Information: Use caution when trying any new ingredient, including carrier oils on the skin or in the hair. Those with nut allergies should consult their medical practitioner before coming into contact with nut oils, butters or other nut products. Do not take any oils internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Safety information can be found by visiting the Safety Information page.
