What Is Pomegranate Seed Oil
A rare omega-5 super-antioxidant you've probably never heard of
The super-antioxidant fatty acid you've probably never heard of
Pomegranate seed oil is cold-pressed from the seeds of the pomegranate fruit. It contains punicic acid — a rare omega-5 fatty acid found almost nowhere else in nature. Punicic acid is one of the most potent natural antioxidants used in skincare.
Why pomegranate seed oil is in Youth Alchemy
The third pillar of Youth Alchemy's natural approach to the look of fine lines. Where bakuchiol is our natural retinol alternative and rosehip oil contributes natural vitamin A, pomegranate seed oil adds antioxidant defense against everyday environmental stress.
What pomegranate seed oil does for your skin

Why cold-pressed organic
Pomegranate seed oil's antioxidant compounds degrade quickly when exposed to heat or solvents. Tau Tau Skin uses only organic, cold-pressed pomegranate seed oil, formulated in small batches to preserve the punicic acid content that makes it effective.
