Peanut Oil 50 ml

A Versatile Plant Oil Beyond the Kitchen Shelf

Cold-pressed from peanut kernels, this oil retains a rich profile of unsaturated fatty acids, natural vitamin E, and phytosterols that make it valuable far beyond cooking. It belongs to the Liquid Basic Oils collection, gathering plant-based carriers used in creams, balms, and massage blends. The compact 50 ml bottle is a practical choice for home formulators and hobbyists who want to trial a new recipe before committing to a larger batch.

Globally, peanut oil serves several industries at once. In skincare manufacturing it is prized for softening and conditioning the skin without leaving a heavy residue, which is why it frequently appears in body lotions, massage oils, lip balms, and makeup removers. Massage therapists particularly favor it for its smooth glide and slower absorption rate, giving longer working time during treatments. In pharmaceutical applications, the oil often acts as a carrier base for topical rubs, while household product makers occasionally use it for conditioning wood and leather surfaces. Culinary use remains significant too, especially in Asian cooking, where its high smoke point makes it a popular choice for stir-frying and dressings.

When blending cosmetic formulas, peanut oil pairs well with other plant oils to balance texture and performance. Combined with lighter Olive Oil, it adds richness to nourishing creams, while adding Rosehip Oil boosts regenerating properties for tired or mature skin formulas. For anti-aging blends, formulators often introduce Wheat Germ Oil as well, thanks to its high tocopherol content, which naturally supports the shelf life of the finished product through antioxidant protection.

A typical usage rate in cosmetic recipes ranges from 5 to 30 percent of the total oil phase, depending on the desired consistency. It should be added during the oil phase preparation, before combining with the water phase, at a temperature not exceeding 45 degrees Celsius to preserve its beneficial compounds. The oil is sensitive to direct sunlight and heat, so it should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a cool and dark place away from heat sources.

The 50 ml size is particularly convenient for home crafters and small studios wanting to test a formula before scaling up, allowing evaluation of texture, absorption, and compatibility with other ingredients without excess leftover stock.
