Cucumber Oil

🌿 Product Overview

From the heart of Kannauj, India, Shiva Exports India presents our meticulously crafted Cucumber Oil, born from a lineage of artisanal distillation spanning centuries. We blend time-honored techniques with state-of-the-art cold-pressing to deliver an essential oil of unparalleled purity and therapeutic potency. This premium Cucumber Oil is ideally suited for discerning perfumers, cosmetic manufacturers, and aromatherapists demanding the highest grade of natural ingredients.

🌿 Olfactory Profile & Applications

Our Cucumber Oil presents a delicate, refreshingly green aroma. The top note evokes crisp cucumber, while the middle note offers a subtle watery sweetness. The base note is a light, almost imperceptible vegetal earthiness that allows it to blend seamlessly with other fragrance components. This oil finds its ideal application in fine fragrances, imparting a cool, clean freshness; in cosmetics, where its skin-soothing properties are highly valued; and in aromatherapy, promoting a sense of calm and rejuvenation. Further applications include aroma chemical synthesis, personal care formulations, soap and candle manufacturing, and specialized pharmaceutical preparations requiring a gentle, non-irritating oil.

📖 Usage & Formulation Guide

Unlock the full potential of our Cucumber Oil with these expert formulation tips:

• Soothing Facial Serum: Combine 5 drops of Cucumber Oil with 10ml of Rosehip seed oil and 5ml of Argan oil for a lightweight, non-comedogenic facial serum ideal for hydrating and brightening the skin. The high linoleic acid content in Cucumber Oil complements the regenerative properties of Rosehip and the balancing effects of Argan.
• Anti-Inflammatory Massage Blend: Dilute Cucumber Oil to a 3% concentration in a carrier oil such as Sweet Almond or Jojoba. Add 2% Roman Chamomile essential oil for enhanced anti-inflammatory and calming benefits, perfect for soothing irritated skin and reducing redness.
• Refreshing Soap Formulation: Incorporate Cucumber Oil at a rate of 1-2% into your cold-process soap recipe to add a subtle, refreshing scent and enhance the soap's moisturizing properties. Be mindful of its light aroma – it pairs well with other green or citrus notes.
• Hydrating Hair Mask: Combine 1 tablespoon of Cucumber Oil with 2 tablespoons of Coconut Oil and 1 tablespoon of raw honey. Apply to damp hair, leave on for 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. This mask will help to strengthen hair, add shine, and reduce frizz.
