Common questions about this ingredient in skincare.
What is goji seed oil?
{"type":"root","children":[{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"Goji seed oil is the fixed oil obtained from Lycium barbarum seeds. It is a lipid-rich cosmetic ingredient and should not be confused with water-based goji fruit extracts or aromatic essential oils."}]}]}
