Flax Seed (Linseed) Oil — Cosmetic Grade is sourced from Madhya Pradesh / Chhattisgarh / Maharashtra, India and exported by Radiance Overseas to perfumery houses, cosmetic manufacturers, aromatherapy brands, soap & candle makers, food & beverage companies in 30+ countries. Refined, cosmetic formulations. Skincare, haircare, anti-aging. Every batch is GC-MS tested for purity and consistency, with full documentation (COA, MSDS, TDS) provided with each shipment.
Radiance Overseas lists flaxseed oil in two grades from the same Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra seed base. This page is the refined grade made for cosmetic formulations. The Food Grade (Virgin) page is the cold-pressed, unrefined grade. It is a carrier (fixed) oil, so the checks buyers apply are fatty-acid profile, peroxide value and acid value rather than essential-oil GC-MS markers.

Flaxseed oil is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and oxidises readily, so ask for the lot COA and a cool, dark storage plan when you place an order. See the whole range on the Flaxseed (Linseed) Oil hub.
We provide GC-MS, COA, MSDS, TDS and Certificate of Origin with every shipment. Call +91 96912 01501 for a cosmetic-grade sample.
On an ingredient list, this oil appears as Linum Usitatissimum Seed Oil, the INCI name recorded in the EU CosIng database with a skin-conditioning function. Its appeal in creams, serums and hair products comes from its high alpha-linolenic acid content. The same chemistry makes it one of the least oxidation-stable carrier oils, so a cosmetic buyer reads the COA differently from a food buyer: freshness and stability matter more than nutrition labelling. For the unrefined edible grade, see the Food Grade (Virgin) flaxseed oil page.
| Parameter | What buyers look at |
|---|---|
| INCI name | Linum Usitatissimum Seed Oil (the labelling name used for both flaxseed and linseed oil) |
| Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) | Roughly 45–60% of fatty acids in published cultivar studies; varies with seed variety and season |
| Iodine value | High, about 170–190 g I₂/100 g in published analyses, which is why the oil oxidises quickly |
| Peroxide value | The main freshness check; request the figure for the exact lot on the COA |
| Acid value | Shows free fatty acid level and how well the oil was handled; stated on the COA |
| Colour and odour | Pale to golden yellow, mild nutty note; refining is used to give a cleaner profile for cosmetics |
Research on flax oil describes it as readily oxidised because of its omega-3 content, which is why laboratory studies store it cold and under nitrogen. Formulators therefore often ask about a tocopherol (vitamin E) antioxidant, nitrogen-flushed filling, and sealed, full containers kept cool and dark. State these needs when you enquire so they can be confirmed for your order.
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review expert panel concluded in 2017 that linseed oil and related plant oils are safe in cosmetics in the present practices of use and concentration. Final suitability for a product still depends on your own stability and safety testing. Specification limits are confirmed per buyer requirement and shown on the lot COA.

Flaxseed oil is high in alpha-linolenic acid and has a high iodine value, so it oxidises faster than most carrier oils. The peroxide value shows how much oxidation has already started, which affects odour, shelf life and the stability of the finished cream or hair product. Request the peroxide value and acid value for your lot on the COA, and mention any antioxidant or nitrogen-flushed packing needs when you enquire.
