I love this oil. It is rich but absorbs quickly without feeling greasy on the skin. I especially love it in the hair. I have very tight, oily hair. I live in the desert, and it felt divine. I'll definitely come back for a bigger size.

Description
Our Poppy Seed Oil is pressed from the tiny seeds of Papaver somniferum, an annual belonging to the Papaveraceae plant family. This species of Poppy is most commonly known as the Opium or Breadseed Poppy. Native to Turkey, it is adored for its beautiful flowers and for its nutritious and flavorful seeds that are used in a wide array of culinary and wellness applications. This intriguing species is also well known for the pods of some cultivars that contain significant quantities of opium latex, a white milky substance that seeps out of the exterior of the pods when scored or cut.
After production, our Poppy Seed Oil is carefully filtered, packaged and stored to maintain the purity, freshness and beneficial properties of this highly nutritive oil.
