Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Emollient
Fills in the tiny cracks between skin cells to make everything feel smooth and soft. The "silky finish" ingredient.
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.

Softens & Smooths
Traditional Use
Rapeseed oil has been used for centuries in traditional Indian and Chinese medicine as a carrier oil and skin emollient. In medieval Europe, it was primarily used for lamp fuel before being adopted for cosmetic and culinary purposes.
