Skin + glow

The clearest skin starts at the kitchen counter.

Skin is built from the fats your body has on hand. habb is one cold-pressed seed — Ethiopian, single-origin — that delivers them. Lab-tested batch by batch, with the actual numbers for your bottle on a card in the box. One teaspoon every morning, for skin that looks like it's been sleeping well.

The science

By study count, the deepest of all the domains.

The skin research on Nigella sativa is, by study count, the deepest of all the domains.

A 2022 systematic review and meta-analysis of 14 RCTs (n=1,159)

Mean age 28.86; 69% female. Analyzed Nigella sativa preparations across skin conditions. Overall odds ratio was 4.59 (95% CI 2.02–10.39) — meaning subjects in the Nigella sativa groups were 4.59× more likely to show skin improvement versus control. Twelve of the fourteen studies showed statistically significant benefit.

A 2020 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (n=60)

Tested a 1% Nigella sativa hydrogel standardized to thymoquinone content, applied twice daily for 60 days. The treatment group showed a 78% mean reduction in Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) skin severity score versus 3.3% in placebo (p<0.001), with no adverse events reported. This study used a topical hydrogel formulation; habb is a supplement for oral use, and the fatty-acid mechanism is shared but the delivery is different.

Phytotherapy Research, 2020 · PMID 32548864 →

Internally, habb delivers the linoleic acid (57–61%) and oleic acid (20–21%) that support skin barrier function, plus thymoquinone's documented antioxidant activity.

Why one ingredient, not twelve

Most skin supplements are stacks. This one is a seed.

What's in the bottle should match what's on the label. Most supplements don't show their work. We do — every batch, third-party tested, the actual numbers for your bottle printed on a card in the box. The 2023 Nutritional Outlook research summary noted that measured oil supports the skin barrier where unmeasured oil sometimes does the opposite. It is not a small detail.

That's why every habb batch publishes three data points:

Thymoquinone — HPLC-UV on the fixed oil, minimum 2%

Lab-verified. Method-disclosed.

Fatty acid profile (GC)

Linoleic 57–61%, oleic 20–21%, palmitic 12–13%. The fatty acids are what feed your skin barrier.

Benzo(a)pyrene under 2.0 μg/kg

For oxidation and contamination safety.

Sourcing: Ethiopian seeds, cold-pressed in California, one ingredient. The full how-it's-made math lives on the transparency page.

Cold-pressed in California from single-origin Ethiopian seeds.

How to use

One teaspoon, every morning.

The ceramic spoon ships with every bottle. Take it straight, stir into warm water, or add to a morning smoothie. Some customers also use a small amount topically on clean skin at night; the oil absorbs fully and leaves no film. Patch-test first.

Give it at least 8 weeks. Skin cell turnover runs 28–40 days; the skin you see today was built 4–6 weeks ago. Take the full 90 under the habb 90-Day Proof.

Questions

The honest answers.

Can I put habb on my face?
Some customers do — a small amount on clean skin at night, fully absorbed. Patch-test on the inside of your wrist first. habb was formulated as a supplement for oral use; a dedicated topical habb face oil sits in the product roadmap.
Does habb replace my skincare routine?
No. habb is one piece of an inside-out approach — supplementation alongside the topical routine you already love. The meta-analysis evidence (PMC9744621) describes Nigella sativa as a complement to, not a replacement for, established skincare.
How long before I see a difference?
Skin renewal cycles run 28–40 days. The clinical trials in the meta-analysis ran 4–16 weeks. Give habb at least 8 weeks, ideally the full 90-Day Proof window, before you make a call.
Will habb help with redness?
habb is not a treatment. The research supports a role for Nigella sativa in supporting the skin's natural balance and a healthy complexion. Your own experience will depend on your baseline and what else you do.
Why does my skin respond to an oil I drink?
The skin barrier is built from fatty acids your body makes from what you eat. habb is ~80% linoleic + oleic acid plus thymoquinone's antioxidant activity — the same fatty-acid family that shows up in cold-pressed skincare oils, delivered systemically.
