Grapeseed Oil
Grapeseed oil is extracted from the seeds of grapes and is high in vitamins C and E, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. These nutrients help to prevent the skin from drying out, making this oil an excellent emollient. The oil balances both dry and oily skin patches and has astringent properties that tighten the skin, reduce wrinkles and scars, and minimize under-eye circles. Its application before pregnancy can prevent and treat stretch marks.
Additionally, grapeseed oil contains all the essential nutrients needed to promote faster hair growth. It moisturizes the scalp and hair, helps rid of thinning hair and split ends, combats dandruff, imparts shine, strengthens hair, and acts as a natural conditioner.
Rich in linoleic acid (Omega 6), grapeseed oil helps to reduce the size of the skin’s pores. Gentle for most people, its use seldom leads to adverse reactions. The oil has treatments that can alleviate poor circulation and related ailments. It is suitable for all skin types, especially if the skin is oily, has large pores, is acne-prone, thin, damaged, or sensitive.
