Pure Cucumber Oil (Cucumis sativus) belongs to the cucurbitaceae family of fruits, which also includes melons, squashes, and gourds. Cucumber Oil, however, is extracted from the seeds, as opposed to the fruit itself. The Oil extracted from the Cucumber seed is known to be rich in a variety of nutrients, which are believed to be highly effective in helping to maintain healthy skin. As such, Cucumber Oil is believed to be beneficial for treating some dry skin conditions, acne, bOils, and for helping the skin to retain moisture.
