Tomato Seed Oil

Tomato seed oil is cold-pressed from the seeds of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum). Originating in South America, tomatoes are now widely cultivated in the Mediterranean region and China. Once discarded as waste, tomato seeds are now recognized for their rich lycopene and essential fatty acids, making the oil an innovative ingredient in high-end skincare and functional foods.
The unique value of tomato seed oil lies in its lycopene (0.5-1.5 mg/100g) and linoleic acid (Omega-6, 55-65%). Lycopene acts as a natural UV protector, while linoleic acid regulates sebum production, excelling in combating photoaging and controlling oiliness. Typical tomato seed oil contains 0.5-1.5 mg/100g of lycopene and 55-65% linoleic acid.
