🧠 What Is Fenugreek Oil?

Fenugreek oil is a nutrient-rich botanical oil extracted from the seeds of Trigonella foenum-graecum. Known for centuries in Ayurvedic and traditional medicine, fenugreek seed oil is valued for its high content of vitamins, minerals, and plant-based compounds that support both skin and hair health.

It can be produced through cold pressing or as fenugreek essential oil via steam distillation, with the former retaining more beneficial fatty acids for topical use.
