Sesame Oil Refined & Winterized EP/USP (TX 8267) is sesame oil at its most refined — processed to remove impurities, clarified for exceptional purity, and winterized to eliminate waxes that would otherwise cloud the oil at low temperatures. The result is a clean, stable, light golden oil that meets the exacting standards of both European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and United States Pharmacopeia (USP) — making it equally at home in a luxury skincare serum, a pharmaceutical carrier, or a premium culinary application.
Naturally rich in oleic and linoleic fatty acids, along with the unique antioxidants sesamol and sesamin, it nourishes skin deeply without heaviness, supports the skin’s natural barrier, and enhances the absorption of active ingredients. In hair, it strengthens, conditions, and adds a natural shine. In massage, its smooth glide and mild warmth make it a therapist’s favourite. Few oils offer this breadth of performance across so many disciplines.
