The presence of carotene, squalene and vitamin E gives this oil antioxidative properties
Pumpkin seed oil can be used in body care, facial creams, lotions and sunscreens to help with moisturization, particularly for dry and damaged skin
It is very good in massage oil formulations
To extend the oxidative stability and shelf life of the product, Pumpkin seed oil should be mixed with more stable oils such as meadowfoam or jojoba oil
