Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil is the oil derived from the seeds of a Sunflower. Sunflower seed oil is non-fragrant. It is an emollient, meaning it helps to soften the skin.
Sunflower seed oil contains many fatty acids. The fatty acids found in sunflower seeds include (from highest amount to least): linoleic acid, myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid, arachidic acid, oleic acid, and linolenic acid.
These fatty acids help the skin create ceramides. Ceramides play a role in repairing the skin barrier.
Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil helps moisturize the skin. This in turn helps the skin look more rejuvenated and smoother.
Sunflowers are rich in vitamin E.
Historians believe Indigenous cultures of North America domesticated sunflowers before corn. Thus they relied on sunflower oil for a variety of uses. One such use is moisturizing skin and hair.
Sunflower seed oil may not be fungal acne safe. We recommend speaking with a professional if you have any concerns.

It's a lovely thin oil-gel lip balm that's very soothing to severely dry & rough lips. Very reminiscent of the famous Biossance lip balm, although the Biossance is a thicker product.
However it's not occlusive enough to be a lip mask, or to last overnight. So that's a fail, sadly.
It quickly soaks into the lips & disappears. I have to put a beeswax product over it to get even an hour of Show more
it’s not only expensive but doesn’t really do anything. just feels nice on the lips for few minutes. hard pass
