Red Raspberry Seed Oil
Virgin Raspberry Seed Oil is cold-pressed and extracted from the seeds of raspberry fruit. Extraordinarily high in Omega-3 and Omega 6 fatty acids, Red Raspberry Seed oil is a superb anti-oxidant. It contains 83% essential fatty acids. The high level of Vitamin E & Vitamin A is known to give it an important role in skin repair and conditioning. Red Raspberry Oil is known especially for its prevention of rashes, eczema and other skin lesions. Raspberry seed oil is emollient, lubricating, conditioning, creates a lipid barrier providing protection to the skin and provides moisture retention for the skin. Its anti-inflammatory properties are greater than those of better-known oils such as virgin Avocado Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Hazelnut Oil and Wheatgerm Oil. Red Raspberry Seed Oil may act as a broad-spectrum UV-A and UV-B shield. It has shown an SPF of between 28 and 50 and thus is a valuable ingredient in natural sunblock and sunscreen.
This provides the skin with significant broad-spectrum protection from damaging UV-A and UV-B rays. Topical application of Virgin Raspberry Seed Oil may help maintain skin softness and hydration.
There’s been plenty of research over the years confirming red raspberry seed oil’s ability to absorb UV rays.
The different types of UV radiation include UVB, UVC, and UVA. The risk of skin cancer varies depending on the type of radiation:
- UVC rays are absorbed by the atmosphere and don’t reach the earth’s surface. For this reason, it’s not a high risk factor for skin cancer.
- UVB radiation is linked to skin cancer because it can damage the top layer of skin and change the DNA in your skin.
- UVA radiation penetrates deep into the skin. Unprotected exposure to these rays can lead to premature skin aging and increase your risk for skin cancer.
According to research, red raspberry seed oil can absorb UVB and UVC sun rays. But the oil offers limited protection from UVA. UVA rays increase the risk for skin cancer and other skin problems like wrinkles and premature aging.
