Chemistry

Fatty acid composition:

1) 11-Eicosenoic Acid: 65-80%2) Docosenoic Acid: 13-20%3) Docosadienoic Acid: 15-21%

Fatty acids in trace amounts:

It is composed predominantly of long-chain monounsaturated fatty acids, including eicosenoic acid (20:1), docosenoic acid (22:1), and docosadienoic acid (22:2). This composition gives it unparalleled oxidative stability, surpassing even jojoba and argan oil. The oil also contains tocopherols (natural Vitamin E), which act as antioxidants, extending its shelf life while supporting skin barrier function.

Comodogenic index:

• Comedogenic level 0: it is non-comedogenic and does not cause pore clogging.
• Comedogenic level 1: there is a small (very low) possibility that the ingredient is comedogenic and may clog pores.
• Comedogenic level 2: in most cases, it will not clog pores. The possibility that it may clog pores is moderate to low.
• Comedogenic level 3: they have a medium chance of clogging pores, depending especially on the skin type.

Applications

Botanical Composition and Benefits

The synergy between these three components forms a bioactive powerhouse:

- Meadowfoam Seed Oil — exceptionally stable and light, rich in eicosenoic acid (60%), docosenoic acid (15%), and natural tocopherols. It forms a breathable barrier on the skin, sealing in moisture without clogging pores.

- Boswellia Serrata (Frankincense Resin) — contains boswellic acids and terpenes that reduce inflammation, boost cell regeneration, and support skin elasticity. Known for its anti-aging and scar-fading properties.

- Commiphora Myrrha (Myrrh Resin) — abundant in furanosesquiterpenes and commiphoric acids, which promote wound healing, antibacterial defense, and emotional grounding.

When infused, these molecules dissolve and integrate within the lipid matrix of Meadowfoam oil, creating a bioavailable elixir that delivers powerful skin-restorative and aromatherapeutic benefits.
