Quick Overview

Safflower Oil

Cold-Pressed Safflower Oil

  • Very high in linoleic acid — one of the richest plant sources of this omega-6 fatty acid, and one of the reasons formulators reach for it. Naturally contains vitamin E.
  • Exceptionally light. Thin, clean and quick to absorb, with almost no scent or colour of its own.
  • A favourite for oily and blemish-prone skin. High-linoleic oils are widely used in facial preparations for skin that reacts badly to richer, oleic-heavy oils.
  • A clean carrier oil. Neutral enough not to compete with essential oils blended into it, and light enough to thin heavier oils.
  • In the kitchen. Mild and neutral — suits dressings, dips and cold dishes where you don't want the oil to add flavour of its own.
  • Cold-pressed and unrefined. No heat, no solvents, no hexane. Nothing added.
  • Produced in Jordan in an ISO 22000 certified facility. Halal certified. Retail, bulk, and private label.

Safflower Oil

Cold-Pressed Safflower Oil

Pure safflower oil (Carthamus tinctorius), cold-pressed in our own facility in Amman from selected seed. No heat, no solvents, no refining.

What it's like

Pale, thin and almost without scent. Safflower is one of the lightest oils we press — it absorbs quickly, leaves very little on the skin, and adds no flavour of its own to food. That neutrality is the point of it.

It is very high in linoleic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid, and naturally contains vitamin E.

Two kinds of safflower, and why it matters

Safflower is grown in two varieties producing quite different oils. High-linoleic safflower is light and used mainly in skincare and cold culinary applications. High-oleic safflower is more heat-stable and used for cooking.

They are often sold under the same name without distinction. Ours is high-linoleic, and certificate of analysis is available for any batch on request.

On skin

High-linoleic oils have a particular place in skincare. They are widely chosen for oily and blemish-prone skin, which often reacts poorly to richer oleic-heavy oils, and safflower is among the lightest available.

Use it alone as a facial oil on slightly damp skin, or as a light body and massage oil.

As a carrier oil

Its neutrality makes it one of the cleaner carriers for essential oils — it won't compete with what you blend into it. Formulators also use it to thin heavier oils without changing their character.

It's one of the twelve oils in our Hair's Mix, where its lightness keeps the blend from sitting heavily on fine hair.

In the kitchen

Mild and neutral. Suited to dressings, dips, mayonnaise and cold dishes where you want the oil to carry other flavours rather than add its own. As with all our unrefined oils, it isn't intended for high-heat frying.

How it's made

Cold-pressed on German machinery without heat or chemical solvents, then filtered and bottled. Unrefined, non-GMO, hexane-free, vegan-friendly. Nothing added.

Produced in an ISO 22000 certified facility and tested by independent third parties. Halal certified. Available in retail bottles, bulk, and private label — including as a carrier oil base for cosmetic manufacturers.

Storage and notes

  • High-linoleic oils are less stable than oleic-rich ones. Store in a cool, dark place and use within a reasonable time of opening.
  • Colour may vary slightly between batches with the season and harvest.

Latin Name: Carthamus tinctorius
INCI Name: Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower) Seed Oil

The Truth About Most Oil on the Market

When it comes to oils, you’ve probably seen a lot of brands claiming “pure,” “natural,” or even “organic” on their labels. But what does that really mean? The sad truth is that many oils on the market are processed in ways that take away their benefits.

Here’s how most oils are extracted in the market:

  • Hexane Extraction: One of the most common methods used to extract oil from seeds, nuts, and fruits is with hexane(a harsh chemical solvent that removes essential nutrients). The problem? Even trace amounts of hexane can be harmful to your body over time. Many big brands use this method because it’s cheap and efficient, but it’s definitely very harmful.

  • High-Temperature Processing: In an effort to increase yield and shelf-life, many oils are subjected to high heat during the extraction process. While this might make the oil cheaper to produce, it also destroys the natural vitamins, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids that make these oils so beneficial.

  • Deodorizing & Bleaching: Some oils go through additional processes like deodorizing and bleaching to remove any natural smell or color. This further strips away the natural benefits, leaving you with an oil that’s not much more than an oily liquid. 

Why Is This a Problem?

So why should you care about all this?

  • Toxic Chemicals: Hexane and other solvents aren’t something you want to put on your skin or hair. These chemicals can cause irritation, long-term damage, and are potentially carcinogenic.

  • Lack of Effectiveness: Without the natural properties intact, oils lose their ability to nourish, hydrate, and protect. So you might find that what you thought would be a great skin or hair treatment actually does little to nothing over time.

  • Nutrient Loss: Heat and chemical processing destroy key vitamins and antioxidants that are crucial for your skin and hair health. Without these nutrients, you’re left with an oil that might feel smooth but won’t actually help you in the long run.

What Makes Our Oils Different?

At Green Fields Oils Factory want to give you the purest, most natural product possible, and here’s how we do it:

  • No Hexane, No Chemicals: We don’t use any chemical solvents like hexane to extract our oils. We believe that oils should be pure, which is why we only use methods like cold-pressing or steam-distillation to retain all the beneficial properties of the oil.

  • Cold-Pressed for Maximum Purity: While other brands may choose the quick and easy route of heating their oils to increase yield, we stick to the more labor-intensive and time-. Cold pressing is the gentlest method of extracting oils, ensuring that no heat or chemicals interfere with the natural nutrients. This method preserves the antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids that are essential for your skin and hair.

  • Fresh, Unrefined Oil: We don’t believe in bleaching or deodorizing our oils. When you buy from us, you get unrefined, fresh oils that retain all their natural color, scent, and nutrients. 

What Does This Mean for You?

Choosing our oils isn’t just about going with a “healthier” option.. it’s about giving your skin, hair, and your heath the absolute best. Here’s how our oils stand out:

  • Higher Nutrient Content: Because we don’t heat or chemically treat our oils, they retain more vitamins and antioxidants>> making them far more effective at nourishing, hydrating, and protecting your skin and hair.

  • True Purity: No chemicals, no preservatives, and no unnecessary processes. What’s in the bottle is what you need, in its most natural form.

  • Long-Term Benefits: Over time, you’ll notice real results. Our oils work with your body, not against it. They help restore.

  • Sustainability & Quality: We’re committed to being transparent, ethical, and environmentally conscious. Our oils are produced actually responsibly, WITH A REAL CYCLIC METHODS!!! with a focus on quality over quantity, ensuring that you’re getting the best of nature with each drop.

Why Settle for Less?

While the market is flooded with cheap, mass-produced oils that rely on harmful chemicals and high temperatures, you don’t have to settle for anything less than the best. Our oils are pressed and distilled with care, using methods that ensure they’re as pure and effective as nature intended.  

Safflower, An Ancient Treasure 

Safflower may not be as famous as some other botanicals, but its history is as rich as its golden petals. Used for over 4,000 years, safflower was prized by ancient Egyptians, who used it to dye fabrics, create cosmetics, and even embalm their mummies. Archaeologists have found safflower-dyed cloth in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, proving its royal significance!

In traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine, safflower was used to improve circulation, ease menstrual pain, and support heart health. It was also a popular ingredient in Persian and Mediterranean cuisine, often used as a substitute for saffron. Throughout history, people valued safflower oil for its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a natural remedy for skin ailments and joint pain.

Fun Fact:

Did you know that safflower was once called "false saffron" because of its similar color? While it’s not as pricey as saffron, safflower has its own unique benefits!
