Greenwood Essential Pure Black Currant Oil 100ml x 3 - Cold Pressed

In this review of Greenwood Essential Pure Black Currant Oil the bottom line is simple: this pack of three 100ml cold-pressed bottles is best for anyone wanting a pure, undiluted carrier oil to add to a daily skin or hair care regimen. The reviewer found the product delivers on purity and packaging, with high quality amber glass and glass droppers that help preserve potency, making it an easy choice for people who prioritise solvent-free, single-ingredient oils for moisturisation and therapeutic use.

Key Features

• Quantity and value: A pack of three 100ml bottles provides a generous supply for regular skin and hair treatments without needing frequent repurchase.
• Preservative-free formulation: The oil is undiluted, non-deodorized and free from additives, preservatives, alcohol and parabens, which keeps the ingredient list minimal and predictable for sensitive skin.
• Cold pressed extraction: Cold pressing preserves the oil's natural properties and makes it suitable as a carrier oil for diluting essential oils or using directly on skin and hair.
• Packaging that protects quality: High quality amber glass bottles with glass droppers reduce light exposure and make precise application easy while preserving potency.
• Versatile, season-round use: Lightweight yet nourishing and non-greasy when used sparingly, the oil fits into daily regimens across all seasons for both face and scalp care.

Who It's For

This oil is aimed at users who want a pure, single-ingredient carrier oil for moisturisation, aromatherapy blends or to support hair nourishment and growth. It suits vegans and those avoiding synthetic fragrances, solvents and parabens who prefer botanical, cold-pressed oils in amber glass packaging.

People who need a fragranced product or expect a strongly aromatic essential oil should look elsewhere, since most carrier oils have faint or no aroma and this product is intentionally non-deodorized and unscented. Also, if a very light texture is required, test a small amount first as some users find the oil thicker on hair.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Pure, undiluted and therapeutic grade formulation that is alcohol- and solvent-free.

• Vegan, cruelty-free and suitable for all skin types when used as directed.

Cons

• Some users report a thick texture that can feel sticky on hair if overapplied, so careful dosing is needed.
