Hazelnut oil is expeller pressed from the nut of the Corylus Avellana tree, yielding a versatile oil naturally rich in essential fatty acids. After pressing, this variety of hazelnut oil is refined and deodorized to result in a bland material ranging from a clear yellow to dark orange appearance, due to the timing of the harvest and pressing. Hazelnut oil is widely used throughout the personal care and cosmetic industry as well as in food and beverage manufacturing. Due to its beneficial skin penetrating abilities, it’s increased in popularity to help counteract and soothe skin conditions including dryness and irritation.
