What Is Linseed Extract?

Linseed extract is derived from the seeds of the flax plant (Linum usitatissimum), one of the oldest cultivated crops known to humanity. The seeds are exceptionally rich in omega-3 fatty acids, lignans, and mucilage.

In skincare, linseed extract provides essential fatty acids that support barrier function and help maintain skin hydration. The mucilage content gives it soothing, film-forming properties that protect and smooth the skin.

This ingredient is particularly beneficial for dry, sensitive, or irritated skin types that require gentle nourishment and barrier support.
