Grapeseed oil

What is grapeseed oil?

Grapeseed oil is literally that – the oil extracted from the pressed seeds of grapes.

Grapeseed oil is actually a by-product of the wine-making process. After grapes are used to make wine, the leftover seeds are then pressed and their oil is extracted.

This oil is incredibly nutrient-dense, containing a rich array of vitamins, fatty acids and plant compounds which are known to be beneficial to our health.

Uses of grapeseed oil

1. Oil cleansing

The oil cleanse method is gaining in popularity in the skincare world.

Cleansing your skin using an oil rich in fatty acids and vitamin E such as grapeseed oil removes excess oil, makeup and dead skin cells from the skin’s surface without stripping its natural oils.

It couldn’t be simpler – just warm a few drops of grapeseed oil between your palms before massaging into your skin for at least a minute. Then, press your face gently with a warm clean flannel to remove the oil, along with the day’s dirt.

2. Hair treatment

You can also use grapeseed oil for hair and scalp health. The fatty acids in grapeseed oil help seal moisture into the hair shaft, giving strength and shine.

Further, the cleansing properties help clarify the scalp and rid it of dead skin cells and dirt, which can help promote hair health and normal growth.

Make a simple hair mask using grapeseed oil warmed for a few seconds in the microwave. For extra scalp-clearing benefits, add a few drops of tea tree or peppermint oil.

Apply to your hair, massaging into the roots. Cover your head with a warm towel or shower cap and rinse out after 30 minutes.

3. Skin treatment

Grapeseed oil for skin is a highly effective treatment which can help protect the skin from negative effects of environmental factors include sun damage.

Thanks to the linoleic acid and vitamin E it contains, grapeseed oil helps protect the skin and help to promote good skin barrier function.

Apply grapeseed oil directly to your skin after a bath or shower and leave to absorb to improve skin look and feel.

Grapeseed oil also makes an effective overnight treatment for dry facial skin. Simply apply before bed – and wake up to soft, hydrated skin!
