Chia seed extract (Salvia Hispanica Seed Extract) – Omega-3 rich superfood for skin & hair
Chia seed extract has anti-inflammatory effects, strengthens skin and hair, smoothes and protects – rich in omega-3, zinc and antioxidants for a healthy glow.
Introduction / Brief description
Chia seeds were considered a source of strength and energy by the ancient peoples of South America, such as the Maya and Aztecs. Today, we know that chia seeds are among the most nutrient-rich superfoods—particularly due to their extremely high content of plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. The certified organic extract provides intensive care, strengthens the skin barrier, and protects the cell structure—ideal for stressed, inflamed skin or brittle hair.
Origin & Production
Our organic chia seed extract is obtained from the seeds of the Salvia Hispanica plant using gentle CO2 extraction. This method is solvent-free and uses natural spring carbon dioxide to extract the delicate active ingredients. The result is a highly pure, natural oil with optimal bioavailability and high skin tolerance.
Effect on skin and hair
- Anti-inflammatory & soothing: Alpha-linolenic acid, zinc and niacin (vitamin B3) work effectively against blemishes, redness, dandruff and eczema.
- Moisturizing & smoothing: The fast-absorbing oil protects against water loss, improves elasticity and promotes a smooth skin texture.
- Cell regenerating & antioxidant: Vitamin E, provitamin A, magnesium and polyphenols protect against free radicals and promote cell renewal.
- Hair strengthening & shine-enhancing: Chia seed oil strengthens the hair fiber, prevents hair breakage and makes the hair more resilient.
