Product Overview
Our Coffee Bean Oil is cold pressed from grounded and roasted coffee beans into a highly aromatic vegetal oil with a strong, rich dark roasted coffee aroma. It is fatty acid-rich, with substantial percentages of Linoleic, Palmitic, and Oleic acids, making it a beneficial addition to mature skin care formulations. The familiar, elevating aroma also makes it a desirable inclusion in invigorating massage oils.[1] Coffee Bean Oil also contains a small amount of caffeine, therefore, if you are highly sensitive or allergic to coffee, we recommend avoiding use of this oil.
Traditional and sacred uses of Coffea arabica include many exotic aromatic and topical preparations, especially when paired with Cardamom and Honey (or Beeswax).[2] In addition to its use in cosmetics and skin care formulations, it could also be used as part of the carrier for oil-based natural perfumes.
In culture, tradition, and daily ritual, this familiar, roasty aroma is very personal with the power to evoke something unique in each person. Here is a way to bring your favorite morning ritual with you, wherever you wander.
