About

Hydrogenated catnip oil — the catnip essential oil chemically saturated to make it more stable and less reactive. Useful for texture and mild antimicrobial effect, but data is thin and sensitization is still possible.

ANTIMICROBIAL

Skin benefits

  • Mild antimicrobial activity
  • Texture-enhancing effect from saturated fats

Known concerns
