ORGANIC TIGERNUT OIL

Bulk Organic Tiger Nut Oil for Cosmetic Formulation

Organic tiger nut oil, obtained from the tuberous roots of Cyperus esculentus grown under certified organic farming, is gaining traction among cosmetic laboratories and formulators seeking natural actives with a balanced lipid profile. This guide covers its origin, its functional properties for skin and hair, and the cosmetic applications most commonly seen in professional formulation.

What is organic tiger nut oil?

Organic tiger nut oil is extracted by pressing the tuberous roots of the tiger nut plant (Cyperus esculentus), grown under certified organic agricultural practices. The extraction process preserves a fatty acid profile rich in oleic acid, together with naturally occurring vitamin E.

This lipid profile provides moisturizing and antioxidant properties of interest for dermocosmetic formulations, while its content of micronutrients such as iron and zinc reinforces its value as a functional ingredient in skin and hair care.

Main cosmetic uses of organic tiger nut oil

Moisturizing creams and emulsions. Organic tiger nut oil is incorporated as an oil phase in facial and body creams, providing emollience and helping improve the sensory softness of the finished product without a heavy, greasy after-feel.

Serums and facial oils. Thanks to its oleic acid and vitamin E content, it is used in nourishing serum formulations and treatment oils aimed at skin types that need lipid replenishment along with antioxidant support.

Hair care formulations. It is used in conditioners, masks and hair oils for its ability to add softness and shine to the hair fiber, integrating well into formulas designed for dry or damaged hair.

Natural cosmetics and artisan soap making. Its certified organic origin makes it an attractive ingredient for natural cosmetics brands and soap makers seeking traceable raw materials; Royal Bio acts as a wholesale oils supplier for these projects, offering bulk supply with full technical documentation.
