Grapeseed Carrier Oil 100ml

Description

Grapeseed carrier oil is extracted from the seeds of grapes, specifically from the byproduct of the winemaking process. It is a light and odourless oil that is rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and essential fatty acids, particularly omega-6. Grapeseed oil is non-comedogenic, meaning it is unlikely to clog pores, making it a popular choice for skincare products.

This carrier oil is easily absorbed into the skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth without a greasy residue. It is known for its moisturizing properties, making it ideal for hydrating dry or sensitive skin. Grapeseed oil also has anti-inflammatory properties and can help to soothe and calm irritated skin.

In aromatherapy, grapeseed carrier oil is often used as a base for blending with essential oils. It acts as a diluting agent to safely carry the essential oils onto the skin and helps to spread the fragrance evenly. Grapeseed oil is versatile and can be used in massage oils, facial serums, hair treatments, and more.

Overall, grapeseed carrier oil is a popular choice in aromatherapy and skincare due to its light texture, moisturizing properties, and ability to enhance the benefits of essential oils.
