Grapeseed Oil

£2.50

Grapeseed oil is a light green oil which is pressed from the seeds of various varieties of grapes, an abundant by-product of winemaking.

Suitability

Due to Grapeseed Oil's high linoleic acid value, this oil is highly moisturising and is light for use in skin care. The oil absorbs very quickly into the skin's pores and has natural non-allergenic properties.

Grapeseed is an essential massage oil, being suitable on a wide variety of skin types and those with nut allergies. Grapeseed makes an ideal base to combine other carrier oils into to make tailored skin care. Combining Jojoba into Grapeseed for example makes an exceptional massage oil.
