Karanj Oil
Karanj Oil
The extraction process of Karanj Oil starts with Pongamia pinnata tree seeds, which originate in South and Southeast Asian regions. This oil bears the alternative names of Pongamia oil and Indian Beech oil. The company Raasa Oils obtains seeds from organic farming operations, followed by cold‑press extraction, which preserves both bioactive compounds and the original fragrance of the oil. Ordinary use allows this oil to slip naturally into skincare and haircare formulations due to its light brown or yellow appearance with a soft nutty fragrance.
Due to its comedogenic rating of 2, Karanj Oil stays light-weight while acting non-greasy and fast absorbing into the skin. Karanjin, alongside pongapin, functions as a flavonoid within the oil that provides protective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds to activate skin and scalp rejuvenation. Karanj Oil represents a traditional treatment from Ayurvedic and Unani medicine settings, which experts now use for skin health management alongside treatment of joint problems. The testing conducted by third parties verifies that Raasa Oils contains no pesticides or heavy metals, or additional contaminants. Karanj oil from Raasa Oils uses amber glass bottles to halt both light exposure and oxidation, which lengthens its shelf stability.
