Plant Oils 101: Almond, Jojoba, Chia and Linseed

Meet the four nourishing oils in the Nail Defender formula, one by one.

Four plant oils make up the fifth name on the Nail Defender label. Here is a friendly introduction to each one.

Sweet almond oil

Pressed from sweet almonds, this light oil has been used in skin care for generations. It spreads easily and feels smooth.

Jojoba oil

Jojoba comes from the seeds of a shrub that grows in dry desert regions. It is known for feeling very close to the skin's own natural oils.

Chia seed oil

The tiny chia seed holds a surprising amount of oil, rich in plant fatty acids.

Linseed oil

Also called flaxseed oil, linseed oil is golden and has long been used for nourishment.

Why blend them?

Each oil feels slightly different. Together they give balanced moisture without heaviness, supporting a smooth feel. Learn more on the oil blend page and see how they pair with vitamin E.*
