SHERIDAN, WYOMING – May 9, 2025 – Sunflower oil has been a staple in skincare for centuries, but did you know that Weleda sources its sunflower oil in an ethical and sustainable way? Weleda, renowned for its commitment to natural, high-quality products, utilizes sunflower oil from Hungary, where the sunflowers are grown in nutrient-rich soil for optimal nourishment.
Ethical Sourcing and Sustainable Farming Practices
Weleda takes pride in sourcing sunflower oil from the heart of Hungary's Puszta, an area known for its ancient plains and ideal growing conditions. The sunflower fields here are cultivated using sustainable methods that prioritize the health of the land and the people who work it. By partnering with local farmers who grow not only sunflowers but also other crops like spelt, wheat, and oats, Weleda supports a harmonious, multi-crop agricultural system.
The sunflower fields benefit from the region’s humus- and nutrient-rich soil, plenty of sunlight, and the necessary pollination by insects. These elements combine to produce the highest quality sunflowers, which are harvested in late summer when the seeds are perfectly ripe. This eco-conscious farming ensures that every product containing Weleda's sunflower oil is made with care for both the environment and the consumer.
Why Sunflower Oil is a Skincare Essential
Sunflower oil is widely celebrated for its nourishing properties, making it a key ingredient in many personal care products. Derived from the seeds of the sunflower, the oil is packed with essential nutrients that help to soothe and hydrate the skin. Sunflower oil is rich in fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins, offering long-lasting moisture and support for skin health.
The sunflower oil used in Weleda products is particularly beneficial because it comes from high oleic varieties. This means the oil has a higher content of oleic acid, making it more stable and longer-lasting. It is an ideal match for other cosmetic oils, enhancing their effectiveness while providing deeper hydration.
Sunflower Oil in Weleda’s NATRUE Certified Products
Weleda’s sunflower oil is part of its NATRUE certified natural product line. NATRUE certification ensures that the products are not only natural but also produced through ethical and environmentally friendly practices. Sunflower oil plays a significant role in the effectiveness of many Weleda products, including the Pomegranate range, known for its skin-nourishing qualities.
By using only the finest sunflower oil, Weleda ensures that every product delivers the highest level of care and nourishment to your skin. Whether it’s a body lotion, facial serum, or other skincare item, the inclusion of sunflower oil ensures a gentle, moisturizing experience that leaves your skin feeling soft and replenished.
