Karanj Oil
Karanj Oil
The extraction process of Karanj Oil begins with the seeds of the Pongamia pinnata tree, native to South and Southeast Asia. Also known as Pongamia oil or Indian Beech oil, it is produced through cold-press extraction, a method that helps preserve its natural bioactive compounds and characteristic nutty aroma. Its light brown to yellow color and soft scent make it a suitable addition to skincare and haircare formulations.
With a comedogenic rating of 2, Karanj Oil remains lightweight, non-greasy, and quickly absorbed. The presence of karanjin and pongapin, two potent flavonoids, contributes antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that support skin and scalp rejuvenation. Traditionally used in Ayurvedic and Unani practices, it continues to play an important role in managing various skin concerns and joint discomfort. Thorough third-party testing ensures the oil is free from pesticides, heavy metals, and other contaminants, while its packaging helps protect against oxidation and maintain stability.
