Soybean Oil 100 ml

A Versatile Plant Oil for Skincare, Haircare and Small-Batch Formulations

Soybean oil is extracted from soy beans through cold pressing or solvent extraction, and thanks to its high content of linoleic acid, vitamin E and phytosterols, it has long moved beyond the food industry alone. Today this oil is widely used in the production of creams, balms, massage blends, sun care products and hair restoration formulas, while also serving as a base component in candle making and certain soap recipes. The 100 ml size is well suited for home cosmetic making and trial batches when a formulator wants to test a recipe before scaling up production. This product belongs to the Liquid Basic Oils category, which brings together base plant oils with different textures and absorption speeds.

In skincare formulations, soybean oil is valued for its light, non-greasy texture and its ability to absorb quickly into the upper layers of skin without leaving a filmy residue. It works well for dry and sensitive skin types, softening and nourishing, and is frequently chosen as a base for massage blends thanks to its smooth glide without excessive oiliness. In hair care recipes, this oil is used as a component of masks and serums that help reduce breakage and add shine, particularly when combined with heavier oils such as Burdock Oil, which reinforces the strengthening effect on hair follicles.

In color cosmetics manufacturing, soybean oil acts as a solvent for fat-soluble pigments and an additive that improves the wear and application of lipsticks and lip balms. In the global food industry, this remains one of the most widely produced vegetable oils due to its neutral flavor and stability under heat, making it a common ingredient in cooking and sauce production. In candle making, small amounts of soybean oil are sometimes blended into wax to increase flexibility in the finished product, while in household chemicals it can be found as a component of wood and leather care formulas.

When building a cosmetic formulation, soybean oil is typically introduced during the cold phase, blended with other oils and emulsifiers at a temperature not exceeding 40-45 degrees Celsius to preserve its nutritional properties. Recommended dosage in creams and balms ranges from 5 to 20 ml per 100 g of finished product depending on the desired texture. It pairs well with lighter oils such as Avocado Oil for creating blends balanced in absorption speed, and with antioxidant-rich oils such as Chokeberry Oil, which enriches the formula with additional beneficial compounds and gives the recipe a more pronounced skin-conditioning effect.

Soybean oil should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a cool dark place away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations, which helps maintain its stability throughout the shelf life. Once opened, it is best used within a few months, checking regularly for any changes in texture or scent.
