Description
Sparshveda Pumpkin Seed Oil is extracted from high-quality pumpkin seeds (pepitas) using a cold-press process that preserves their full nutrient spectrum. This medium-weight oil is loaded with hair-loving and skin-loving actives: vitamin E, phytosterols (like beta-sitosterol), zinc, magnesium, iron, biotin, and a high content of unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids.
For hair and scalp, pumpkin seed oil has gained attention because of its potential to support hair growth and reduce hair loss by modulating DHT (dihydrotestosterone), the hormone closely linked with androgenetic hair thinning.
Studies show that pumpkin seed oil provides fatty acids and phytosterols that can inhibit 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that converts testosterone to DHT. At the same time, its rich nutrient profile moisturises the scalp, strengthens the hair shaft, improves elasticity and protects against breakage and damage from heat and styling.
On the skin, Sparshveda Pumpkin Seed Oil offers a potent blend of vitamins A, C and E with omega 3, 6 and 9, making it an excellent anti-ageing and barrier-repair oil. These nutrients help boost collagen production, fade the appearance of fine lines, and improve firmness while regenerating damaged tissues and evening out tone and texture.
Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties help calm acne-prone, eczema-prone and irritated skin by reducing redness, soothing flare-ups and speeding up the healing of scars and blemishes. Its ability to regulate sebum and moisturise without an excessively greasy feel makes it suitable for normal, dry and combination skin when used in moderation.
Because pumpkin seed oil is rich in antioxidants, it helps defend against environmental aggressors and oxidative stress that accelerate hair ageing (loss of colour, thinning) and skin ageing (wrinkles, dullness, roughness). Used regularly, it can help hair look fuller and shinier and skin appear smoother, plumper and more resilient.

How to use Sparshveda Pumpkin Seed Oil
For hair growth & hair fall control
Warm 1–2 teaspoons of oil between your palms.
Massage into scalp for 5–10 minutes, focusing on areas of thinning (crown, hairline).
Work the remaining oil through lengths to mid-lengths and ends.
Leave on for at least 45–60 minutes or overnight, then wash with a mild shampoo.
Use 2–3 times per week for best results.
For scalp dryness & dandruff
Apply directly to dry, flaky or itchy patches on the scalp.
Massage gently, leave for 30–60 minutes and then shampoo.
Combine with regular use to keep the scalp hydrated and more comfortable.
For facial skincare (PM routine)
Mix 2–3 drops with your regular moisturizer or another lighter carrier oil.
Apply to damp, cleansed skin at night to boost barrier repair, firmness and glow.
Suitable for dry, normal and combination skin; oily/acne-prone skin should start with very small amounts and monitor response.
For body & rough areas
Massage onto damp skin after shower, focusing on elbows, knees, heels and stretch-mark-prone areas to support tissue repair and softness.
Safety & usage notes
External use only unless specifically labelled as food-grade and directed otherwise.
Patch test before first use, especially on acne-prone or sensitive skin.
Start with small amounts on face or fine hair to avoid heaviness.
If you are under treatment for hair loss or a skin condition, use pumpkin seed oil as a complementary cosmetic step—not a replacement for medical care.
