Saw Palmetto Seed Oil, cold-pressed from the ripe berries of Serenoa repens, is one of the most powerful botanical oils for skin and hair wellness. Celebrated for centuries in Native American and traditional herbal medicine, saw palmetto contains a uniquely high concentration of beneficial fatty acids, phytosterols, and antioxidant compounds that make it an exceptional natural ingredient for hair strengthening, scalp balance, hormonal skin support, and anti-aging care.

Our 100% pure, cold-pressed, unrefined Saw Palmetto Seed Oil is produced without heat or solvents, preserving its complete biochemical richness. With its silky texture, earthy-golden aroma, and potent therapeutic profile, this oil is ideal for luxury skincare, haircare formulations, scalp elixirs, beard oils, and wellness serums designed to restore balance, strength, and vitality. 

Botanical Composition & Nutrient Profile

Saw palmetto berries contain a diverse range of bioactive compounds, giving this oil a rare and powerful therapeutic profile:

Oleic Acid (Omega-9) – deeply moisturizing, supports skin softness

Linoleic Acid (Omega-6) – essential for barrier repair and hydration

Palmitic & Stearic Acids – protective and structure-forming lipids

Phytosterols (β-sitosterol) – powerful DHT-balancing properties

Carotenoids & Polyphenols – anti-inflammatory and antioxidant

Flavonoids & Fatty Alcohols – help soothe and strengthen skin

Natural Vitamin E – protects against oxidative stress

Lauric Acid (rare in seed oils) – supports scalp health


This synergy makes saw palmetto seed oil especially effective for men’s grooming, hair growth support, scalp therapy, and hormonal skin balance.
