COMMON USES & APPLICATIONS

For skin

• Facial moisturiser: Use alone as a lightweight face oil, or blend into a cream or lotion, for oily, combination and normal skin types.
• Cleanser and make-up remover: Massage onto dry skin to lift make-up and surface oil, then rinse with warm water or wipe away with a damp cloth.
• Body oil: Apply after showering while skin is still damp to help lock in moisture without a heavy feel.

For hair

• Pre-wash treatment: Massage into the scalp and through the lengths, leave for up to an hour, then wash out as usual for smoother-feeling, shinier hair.
• Frizz control: Smooth a small amount through dry ends to settle flyaways without weighing hair down.

For DIY and formulating

• Carrier oil for essential oils: Dilutes essential oils for topical blends and massage oils, thanks to its light texture and near-neutral scent.
• Base for lotions and creams: Adds a light, fast-absorbing feel to the oil phase of homemade lotions and hand creams.
• Massage oil: Its slip and light finish make it a common choice as a base for massage blends.

GETTING THE MOST FROM IT

• Grapeseed oil can be used directly on the skin without dilution, unlike essential oils.
• Combine with a heavier carrier oil, such as argan or jojoba, if you want more cushion in a finished blend.
• Add a few drops of an essential oil such as lavender or rosemary to bring fragrance to an otherwise near-neutral oil.
• Store away from heat and light, as refined light oils like this one are prone to oxidising if left in a warm spot.

CARE & CAUTIONS

• Perform a patch test before first use.
• For external use only, do not ingest.
• Store in a cool, dark place, tightly sealed between uses.
