BORAGE REFINED OIL

Refined Borage Oil in Bulk for Cosmetics

Refined borage oil is a plant-based raw material highly valued in cosmetic formulation for its gamma-linolenic acid content. At Royal Bio we supply it in bulk as a wholesaler of vegetable and essential oils, serving laboratories, artisan soap makers and professional formulators who need steady volume, technical data sheets and traceability for skin and hair care development.

What is Refined Borage Oil?

Refined borage oil is obtained from Borago officinalis seeds through extraction, followed by a refining process that removes impurities, odor and color, resulting in a more neutral and stable oil than its virgin counterpart, suitable for sensitive formulations.

Its composition features polyunsaturated fatty acids, mainly linoleic acid and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), together with vitamin E, phytosterols and natural antioxidants. These properties give it a moisturizing and regenerating profile widely appreciated in facial and hair cosmetics.

Main Cosmetic Uses of Refined Borage Oil

Anti-aging facial care. It is added to serums and face creams for its GLA content, a fatty acid that helps maintain elasticity and support the lipid barrier of mature skin.

Light emulsion formulation. Being refined, with neutral color and odor, it is ideal for creams and lotions where a clean texture is needed without interfering with the product's final fragrance.

Hair treatments. Used in masks and oils for dry or damaged hair, providing nourishment without a greasy feel thanks to its fast absorption.

Body care cosmetics. Applied in balms and massage oils formulated for sensitive or reactive skin, valued for its gentle profile and compatibility with other active ingredients.
