Frequently Asked Questions
How to make Cucumber Seed oil?
  • Cold pressed oil extraction is a strenuous project where the seeds of the cucumber are dried and pressed without application of heat with a bladder press or a hydraulic press to maintain the nutrients in the natural oil. Cucumber seeds actually contain a significant amount of oil. Due to this strenuous and difficult task, it may be easier to make a cucumber extract at home rather than cucumber oil which is a process of using cleaned and sliced cucumbers, macerating them in a blender and putting them through a cheesecloth. This mixture should be stored in a refrigerator and used within a few days blended into products.

Great product, especially for under eye bags

I’ve been using this product for over a year for my under eye bags and it works spectacularly. Not everything is for everyone but it has performed wondrously. I don’t mix it with anything and apply it after my daily eye cream.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

I tried this out and it is the best discovery ever! It feels like silk and is so refreshing on my skin! I mix it with jojoba oil, rosehip oil, argan oil, and the Age Defy blend and my sunspots have disappeared! (probably more due to the Age Defy :)
