Grapeseed Oil

One of the things that I love about Nature is it many uses.  Of them is grapeseed oil.  Although many prefer to eat the seedless kind, bare in mind that the seeds are very beneficial for everyday use.

Grapeseed oil is a vegetable oil and that is taken from the seeds of the grape plant.  The extracted oil is used in salads for its nutty taste but is also widely used in skin-care.  It is a lightweight oil and the skin can absorb it rather quickly.

I love using this oil mainly because how it feels on my skin once it dries and it is great for oily skin (which I have).  It is extensively used as a massage oil base and it is noted for its skin-repairing capabilities for the skin around the eyes.  I love to use grapeseed oil in bath bomb and lotion recipes and I find it to be a great alternative to sweet almond oil.

You can easily find grapeseed oil in the ‘oils’ section of the supermarket or online from skin-care suppliers.
