What it does
A cold-pressed oil from strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) seeds, rich in linoleic and other fatty acids, used as a lightweight emollient distinct from strawberry fruit or leaf extracts. As an emollient ingredient, it is particularly valued for lightweight emollient rich in fatty acids and softens and conditions skin.
Skin type guide
Best suited to normal, dry, or combination skin. Lightweight emollients work for oily skin too — richer ones are best reserved for dry and very dry skin types.
How to use it
Works best as a later step in your routine, after water-based serums and treatments. Emollients help seal in earlier layers, so their placement matters — put lighter textures on first.
