Grapeseed oil

Although grapeseed oil is a byproduct of winemaking, the oil has long been regarded as a healthier dietary alternative, wreaking less damage on internal organs than other fats.

The skin is our largest organ. With that in mind, more are paying closer attention to how we treat it, resulting in the desire for botanical, natural alternatives in cosmetic formulations meant to protect our skin.

Now grapeseed oil is in the spotlight for its nutrient-dense composition. The oil has become recognized as a vital oil in skin treatments, offering a world of benefits. The vitamin E and Omega 6 enriched oil support your skin and assist in maintaining healthy balanced skin.

Even though the oil appears in many cosmetic formulations, grapeseed oil is often misunderstood by those in the industry.

When used in conjunction with other non-comedogenic oils, it's a lightweight oil that can unclog pores and restore the balance of oil production on the skin's surface.

Even on its own, this health-giving oil has a range of undeniable and scientifically-verified benefits that are worthwhile to protect and support the skin's function.

Grapeseed Oil’s scientifically-backed Benefits

The actives in grapeseed oil – vitamin E content, omega 6, and polyphenols – give this oil a broad range of benefits that have been proven to care for aging and stressed skin.

Reduces inflammation

Daily, you subject your skin to exogenetic stimuli – in the form of bacteria, pollution, and environmental stressors – that cause inflammatory reactions in the skin and may lead to redness, puffiness, and a rough texture that deteriorates a youthful appearance.

The vitamin E in grapeseed oil helps with soothing inflammation and conditions like eczema, rosacea, and dermatitis. Additionally, the oil shows signs that it can reduce and – in some instances – reverse this inflammation restoring your youthful glow.

Intensely hydrates

Grapeseed oil is known for its intensely hydrating properties. Because, like other plant oils, grapeseed oil serves as a barrier to keep moisture in and bacteria out.

Moreover, the antibacterial properties of grapeseed oil also make it a superior moisturizer for sensitive and acne-prone skin.

Defends Against UV Damage

While inflammation results from an onslaught of external factors, UV damage is one such exogenous component that wreaks havoc on your skin. It can be challenging to understand how UV damage does more than burn the surface of the skin. But a simple analogy can help you understand why the sun – whether it's sunny or cloudy – is the most damaging to your skin.

Imagine your skin is varnished wood. The varnish protects the wood from aging, warping, and rotting. Similarly, the epidermis on the surface of the skin protects deeper layers from damage. UV rays strip away these protective layers, leaving your skin exposed to damage.

Grapeseed oil has a dual function: it assists in repairing the harm caused by UV rays while protecting the skin from further damage.

And here it is in our oil blends so,

Sanctify your skin!
