Sacha Inchi Oil
INCI: plukenetia volubilis seed oil
Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) seed oil from the Amazon carries one of the highest plant omega-3 (α-linolenic acid) contents known — around 45% — plus omega-6, 9, vitamin E, and sterols. For skin, this translates into anti-inflammatory barrier support, improved moisture retention, and calming of reactive conditions. Despite its lipid richness it absorbs light and dry, suiting combination skin that wants nourishment without weight. At 2–10% it enhances serums and repair creams. Omega-3 economics rarely reach skin topically; sacha inchi is the exception that delivers.
