- 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.
- Cucumber Seed Oil contains a significant percentage of Oleic Acid and Linoleic Acid and can be effective in treating skin ailments including dry skin, eczema, psoriasis, acne and even nurture sunburned skin. Cucumber Seed Oil is found often in hair care and scalp treatment products to encourage robust hair growth and increased vibrancy.
