 Usually, the most nutritious oils include two different extraction methods – cold pressed method and expeller pressed method. Temperatures are precisely controlled during the complete batching process of cold pressing. Cold pressing is a mechanical extraction, which assures the heat does reach more than 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit. As for the expeller pressed method – it is a natural, mechanical extraction that requires a small level of heat, generally around 120-200 degrees Fahrenheit, its (the oil) molecular state is fairly undisturbed.
The oils extracted in these two ways maintain key nutrients and healing properties. Overly refined oils, often extracted with very high heat and the use of harsh solvents have fewer nutrients; consequently do not perform as well. Though cold and expeller pressed are the extraction methods of choice, they are for various reasons, not suitable for all oils.
Superior oil for salad dressing like olive includes cold pressing of the fruit, the same theory applies to plant based oils used in skincare. In such a way explaining the difference in their costs, cold pressed and expeller pressed are more costly to manufacture than the different methods used to manufacture refined oils.
As for the natural product or ingredient that is organically grown will also be more expensive; nevertheless, being certified organic assures that the material used is free of herbicides, pesticides and other controversial additives. Though lots of skincare companies do not freely tell what extraction method is used, it always benefits the consumer to become an avid label reader.
