How to use them — hair, skin & culinary (step by step)

1. Hair: warm 2–3 drops in your palms; smooth through mid-lengths and ends; for scalp comfort, massage a diluted blend before shampoo.
2. Skin & Body: apply on slightly damp skin to boost absorption; layer under moisturizer or mix 2–5% into creams/serums.
3. Culinary: use only cold (salads/smoothies); avoid high heat to protect delicate fatty acids.
4. Formulating: add 1–10% in serums, masks and balms; follow cosmetic/food regulations for your market.

Additionally, adjust quantity to hair/skin type. Alternatively, use as a booster with soothing actives (e.g., panthenol or vitamin E). For procurement, you can request a quote.
