All About Mink Oil!

Mink oil comes from a thick fatty layer lying just under the skin of minks. Researchers have learned that the refined oil of minks is very similar to human body oils, making it a valuable natural supplement to skin care products.

It’s used in several medicinal and cosmetic products, showing long lasting stability. Cosmetics made with mink oil will stay fresher for a longer period of time than cosmetics made with other oils. Some commercial or homemade skin care products consist of: soaps, lotions, creams, lip balms and shampoos. Some pet shampoos contain this oil, too!

This oil is light gold in color with a slight musky fragrance. Its absorption and nurturing properties are superior to any other oil found on the market, today.

Mink oil contains a special ratio of glycerides, not available in any other oils on the market. These glycerides allow superior softness, smoothness, and moisture retaining properties.

Its high ratio of unsaturated triglycerides enables superior spreading capabilities.

This oil has superior skin absorption and skin nourishing properties. It penetrates quickly and deeply into skin without a sticky, greasy or oily residue.

It lubricates the skin, trapping moisture from the lower cell layers, enabling skin to re-moisture itself!

It provides numerous healthful benefits for the skin, hair and scalp! It's used in a variety of ways.
