Radish Seed Oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing botanical oil pressed from the seeds of the radish plant (Raphanus sativus), a member of the Brassicaceae family. While radishes are more commonly known as a crisp, peppery salad ingredient, their seeds yield a silky, nourishing oil that has quickly gained popularity in natural skincare for its unique composition and versatile benefits.

We use this luxurious oil in our Goat Milk Lotions for its deeply moisturising yet non-greasy properties, making it ideal for those looking to keep their skin soft, hydrated, and smooth—naturally.

The Benefits of Radish Seed Oil: Silky Hydration from Nature

Radish Seed Oil may be a lesser-known ingredient, but it’s a true gem in natural skincare. With a composition rich in long-chain fatty acids and antioxidants, it delivers moisture and nourishment without leaving a heavy residue on the skin.

Lightweight Hydration That Lasts

Radish Seed Oil mimics the feel of silicones—commonly found in synthetic skincare—but it’s entirely natural and biodegradable. This gives our lotions a silky, smooth glide, leaving the skin soft and moisturised without any greasy after-feel. It’s especially beneficial for dry or rough patches, making it ideal for everyday hydration.

Rich in Omega Fatty Acids

Packed with essential fatty acids like omega-6 and omega-9, Radish Seed Oil helps reinforce the skin's natural barrier. This not only keeps moisture locked in but also protects the skin from environmental stressors and pollution.

Non-Comedogenic & Suitable for Sensitive Skin

Thanks to its light texture, Radish Seed Oil doesn’t clog pores or feel heavy, making it suitable for all skin types—including oily, acne-prone, and sensitive skin. It's a soothing addition to skincare routines that need hydration without irritation.

Natural Emollient for Smooth, Supple Skin

Radish Seed Oil acts as an emollient, softening and smoothing the skin while improving texture and elasticity. This is especially helpful for hands and areas prone to dryness or exposure to the elements.

Sustainably Sourced & Planet Friendly

Radish is a fast-growing, low-impact crop, and our supplier ensures the oil is cold-pressed and minimally processed to retain its skin-loving properties. It’s a sustainable alternative to synthetic emollients and palm-derived oils.
