Rubus Chamaemorus Seed Oil
Rubus Chamaemorus Seed Oil, also known as cloudberry seed oil, is a lightweight yet nourishing oil extracted from the seeds of the cloudberry. It is prized in UK skincare for its high content of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamin E and natural antioxidants. Gentle enough for daily use, it helps support skin softness and resilience.
How it works in skincare
In cosmetics and skincare formulations Rubus Chamaemorus Seed Oil delivers essential fatty acids and tocopherols that reinforce the skin’s natural lipid barrier, helping to lock in moisture and protect against environmental stressors. Its fast-absorbing texture makes it an excellent emollient in facial oils, moisturisers and lip balms, leaving skin feeling supple without a greasy residue. The oil’s natural antioxidant profile also helps stabilise formulas and supports the overall sensory feel of premium beauty products.
