When it comes to botanical oils that truly nourish the skin, few can match the remarkable profile ofSacha Inchi oil. Pressed from the seeds of the Plukenetia volubilis plant, which grows in the Peruvian Amazon, this lightweight oil has been treasured for centuries by indigenous communities for both its nutritional and skin-conditioning properties.
Naturally rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants and vitamins, Sacha Inchi oil is an exceptional ingredient for maintaining healthy, balanced skin. We use certified organic Sacha Inchi oil because we believe the purest ingredients deliver the greatest benefits while supporting environmentally responsible farming.
A Remarkable Nutrient Profile
Sacha Inchi oil stands out because of its exceptionally high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids, particularly:
-
Omega-3 (Alpha-Linolenic Acid) – one of the richest plant sources available, helping to calm inflammation and strengthen the skin barrier.
-
Omega-6 (Linoleic Acid) – supports healthy cell renewal, balances oil production and helps reduce moisture loss.
-
Omega-9 (Oleic Acid) – softens, smooths and conditions the skin while improving elasticity.
Alongside these beneficial lipids, Sacha Inchi oil naturally contains:
-
Vitamin E (tocopherols), a powerful antioxidant
-
Phytosterols that help soothe irritated skin
-
Polyphenols that protect against environmental stressors
Together, these nutrients make Sacha Inchi oil a highly effective natural moisturiser and skin protector.
Deep Hydration Without Feeling Heavy
One of the qualities that makes Sacha Inchi oil so popular in natural skincare is its beautifully light texture. Despite being packed with nourishing fatty acids, it absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy residue.
This makes it suitable for almost every skin type, including oily and combination skin, providing lasting hydration while allowing the skin to breathe.
Supports the Skin Barrier
A healthy skin barrier is essential for maintaining moisture and protecting against environmental damage. The rich blend of omega fatty acids in Sacha Inchi oil helps replenish the skin’s natural lipid barrier, reducing water loss and improving resilience. Regular use leaves skin feeling softer, more supple, better hydrated and less prone to dryness and irritation
Naturally Soothes Sensitive Skin
The anti-inflammatory properties of Omega-3 fatty acids make Sacha Inchi oil particularly beneficial for sensitive, reactive or stressed skin. It can help calm visible redness and discomfort while supporting the skin’s natural repair processes, making it an excellent addition to formulations designed for delicate or easily irritated complexions.
Rich in Protective Antioxidants
Every day our skin is exposed to pollution, UV radiation and other environmental stressors that generate free radicals and contribute to premature ageing. The naturally occurring Vitamin E and polyphenols in organic Sacha Inchi oil help neutralise these free radicals, supporting healthier-looking skin and helping to preserve its youthful appearance.
Promotes Smooth, Youthful-Looking Skin
Healthy skin depends on maintaining moisture, elasticity and a strong protective barrier. Sacha Inchi oil helps support all three. By nourishing the skin with essential fatty acids and antioxidants, it helps improve skin texture, soften the appearance of fine lines caused by dehydration and leave the complexion looking smoother and more radiant.
An Ideal Oil for Every Skin Type
Because of its balanced fatty acid composition and lightweight feel, organic Sacha Inchi oil is suitable for:
-
Dry and dehydrated skin
-
Sensitive skin
-
Mature skin
-
Combination skin
-
Oily and blemish-prone skin
-
Skin exposed to environmental stress
Its versatility makes it one of nature’s most impressive skincare oils.
