Pumpkin Seed Oil, ORGANIC

Pumpkin seed oil is a dark green carrier oil cold-pressed from pumpkin seeds. Its nutrients, including fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, make it a desirable moisturizing ingredient in natural beauty products, such as lotions, creams, body mists, soaps, shampoos, and conditioners.
Some perfumers use Pumpkin seed oil as a base oil for perfumes and cosmetics. It is an economic alternative to other base oils such as jojoba oil and sweet almond oil, and can add a nutty depth to floral or fruity perfumes. For the same reason it is used as a carrier oil in room deodorizers and aromatherapy.
Pumpkin seed oil is often used as a dressing for salads and roasted vegetables. It is used to make marinades for meats and fish, and to add flavor to cooked dishes, such as soups, stews, and pasta sauces. It can be used as a cooking oil, but for sauteing rather than high-heat frying as it has a low smoke-point temperature.
