APPLICATIONS

Hazelnut oil is used in numerous products: emollient hand creams, face creams (for normal, sensitive, dry, damaged and

mature skin), massage and care oils, foam baths, after-sun oils and creams, and shampoos for dry hair.

ORIGIN

Originating from Europe, hazel is a bushy tree belonging to the Betulaceae family. It grows up to 5 m high and has a greyish

erect stem. It has alternate, slightly hairy oval leaves with doubly serrated edges. Its flowers appear very early well before

the leaves. Its fruit, the hazelnut, is ovoid and surrounded by a foliaceous involucre. It contains two kernels, one of which

almost always aborts. The oil is extracted from these kernels.

PROPERTIES

Hazelnut oil has softening, regenerating and restructuring properties. It is used for its power of diffusion and penetration of

active principles; it penetrates the epidermis very easily without leaving the skin with a greasy feeling.
