"I breathe in the rain and wash my worries away"
Whoever says you can't have your grapes and eat them too. Actually, they may
have been talking about cake. Either way, we love grapeseed oil! This oil is
underrated when it comes to skincare, hair care, and even cooking. In this post,
we will talk about all the ways you can start using grapeseed oil to nurture your
entire body.
Benefits of grapeseed oil
Grapeseed oil doesn't come from the grapes themselves, as the name suggests
it comes from all the tiny seeds. Within these small seeds holds a world of
benefits for our internal and external health. Grapeseed oil is very lightweight and
can be used on any skin or hair type. It is fast absorbing and won’t leave you
feeling weighed down or sticky.
This oil is one of those universal oils that pretty much does everything you need it
to do. It softens dry and cracked skin, and repairs at the same time. Grapeseed
oil contains fatty acids, these help balance your skin in several ways. One
important benefit is that they keep your skin healthy and shut out irritants.
If your pores are sensitive then grapeseed oil just might be what you’ve been
looking for. It can be used on your face and body as a normal moisturizer. When
used consistently it can even your skin tone, lessen redness, and promote a
healthy glow.
Grapeseed oil as a skin moisturizer will add sheen and softness. To use this oil,
squeeze a generous amount into your hands. Massage your skin with it for at
least a minute to get the best results. It's that easy, now you can rest knowing
your skin is happy. Our Naked in the rain body elixir incorporates this oil among
many more!
