The Magic of Grape Seed Oil for Your Skin

If you love wine, we’re going to give you another reason to love it even more! Did you know that oil is a by-product during the process of making wine? Yes, grapeseed oil is derived from the pressed seeds of grapes.  

But what is so special about this oil you ask? Wrong question! What’s not special about this oil should be your question. Because that list is honestly shorter. Read on to find out the magic of Grapeseed Oil for your skin.

Benefits of Grape Seed Oil for Skin

Grapeseed oil’s beauty benefits for your skin might be due to the vitamin E and omega-6 fatty acids that are found in it.

Exposure to sun, dry air in the winter, and other harmful pollutants can cause severe damage to your skin. Vitamin E in the grapeseed oil helps to fight these external free radicals when consumed through your diet or applied topically on your skin. 

Your skin barrier function is extremely important to protect, nourish and maintain your skin’s overall health. Omega-6 fatty acids are known to have linoleic acids that are an important part of your facial skin as it balances sebum production along with its texture and consistency.

Here are some of the most prominent benefits of grapeseed oil to maintain healthy skin:

-Helps moisturise skin.

-Provides even skin tone.

-Reduce breakouts.

-Heals acne.

-Tighten pores.

-Reduce the appearance of scars.

-Assists in removing makeup.

One of the most amazing things about grapeseed oil is that it is not too heavy and not too light either, making it perfectly usable in the morning as well as at night.

Like some other oils, it does not sit on your face for too long and gets absorbed quickly. Plus it does not clog your pores either, making it a great choice for most skin types. 

    How to Use Grapeseed Oil?

    The versatility of this oil makes it suitable to be incorporated in many products. But you can purchase it in its raw form and simply use it as a moisturizing mask for your face. Simply put 2-3 drops on your palm, rub your palms gently to warm it up a bit and then evenly spread it over your face.

    Other ways to use it:

    -  As a sun protection cream that is light and non-greasy.

    -  As a night cream that’ll repair and help your skin recover when you sleep without clogging your pores.

    -  As a face oil in your CTM routine.

      Side effects of Grapeseed oil

      You need to be careful of grapeseed oil products that are produced using chemical solvents like hexane. Some manufacturing processes involve heating the oil at high temperatures which can actually make it go bad. Grapeseed oil that is cold-pressed and does not use other chemical solvents is a better choice.

      You’ll probably not have any side effects to grapeseed oil unless you’re allergic to it. To test this out, apply the oil to your ankle or wrist. Wait for 24 hours to see if you have any weird reactions. If not, you’re good to go ahead and use this oil.

          The oil can be used to help lock in moisture after your showers and help nourish the skin to improve its health along with your hair

          Since grapeseed oil is a relatively light oil compared to other oils like coconut and olive, it's much easier to apply to your hair giving your hair shine and strength without weighing it down much.
