Cold pressed, if you look at their website. Organic and GMO free also. https://www.desertessence.com/top-uses-jojoba-oil

The opposite is true. Cold Pressed is by far better for your skin. Google around (although it might be tough to find this info). I recently bought Nature's Way and they sent me Expeller Pressed coconut oil for some reason. It didn't soak into my skin at all, made my eyes red and kinda hurt (if I put it under near my eyes) and it left an oily feeling ALL day long. I researched through google and the amazon comments section and found out that expeller pressed does that to you. So long answer short, USE COLD PRESSED FOR COOKING AND FOR SKIN.

It does not have a taste, and can be used for oil pulling but organic cold pressed coconut oil works best. You just have to warm it slightly to get it out of solid form.

When the oil gets cold it solidifies. It's not spoiled. Just take it out and let it warm up and then use it. I keep mine in the refrigerator to prolong it's life.

Hi, the bottle says expelled pressed and hexane free, made on the US. Hope this helps.

The label says "cold pressed to preserve the natural nutritional content" so I believe it is not "refined" in the typical sense. It is a clear oil with a mild nutty taste. I keep it in the refrigerator at all times and it does not thicken. I use it for cooking, salad dressings, etc. Another excellent oil is avocado oil.

Hi FaithBelle, Do you actually have the physical bottle in your possession? If you do, you can look on the back and the bottom paragraph says that it is 'cold pressed and food grade. It also says that 'It is truly a versatile oil with numerous benefits from culinary to cosmetics' so I believe that it is suitable to cook with. Happy cooking (:

I bought mine just to make my homemade soap more bubbly, since it contain 90% ricinoleic acid. It works to make soap bubbly, but don't exceed 15% by weight otherwise the soap smells funny. I did not send the oil to a laboratory for analysis, so I do not know if hexane is present.

it doesn't say raw specifically on the container. it says "unrefined" and cold-pressed"

I used about 15 drops on French Lavender oil in my homemade laundry soap, aside from that I am unclear what a "cold process soap" would be.

Refining has nothing to do with the pressing technique used to extract the oil from the nut. So, a cold pressed oil can then be refined by filtering, etc. If this is unrefined, then the company should state that fact.

This is not cold pressed extra virgin olive oil. If placed in the fridge, the authentic cold pressed, EVOO will solidify. This stuff remains in its liquid form. It has probably been mixed with unhealthy oils and flavorings. You're not getting what you think you're getting if you buy this stuff.

According to the booklet that was sent with this product, no it is not cold pressed. But it is pure oil, which means no additives, bases, fillers or synthetics. Check here: www.edensgarden.com. Hope that helps! :)

Did you check their website? I'll see if I can read the fine print on the can.Started with organic chicken and sufficient water to process. Will have to take another look when I have more light and a magnifying glass.

It is "unrefined" which is to say it hasn't been processed in any way in my understanding. You can use it like you would a cooking oil or like in my case, I mix it in with foods I feed to my parrots! It doesn't have to be heated up but sometimes it gets kind of solid when it is cold in your house so heating it slightly can make it easier to use. Hope this helps answer your question.

As I researched the essential depot sight I found that this oil is said to be cold pressed, usually cold pressing is hexane free, they were helpful with my soaping questions so if you contact them I am sure they would be happy to help.Their catch phrase is greener life essentials so I hope it would be hexane free.

According to the information on the Aura acacia website, this oil is cold pressed. Enjoy!
