Grapeseed Oil

vitis vinifera

Grapeseed Oil is an ecologically sound product that
is made from the seeds of grapes
after the wine is pressed.
Grapeseed oil is high in vitamin E and is
76% essential fatty acid, linoleic acid
(also known as Omega 6).
It is low in saturated fat, contains natural
chlorophyll and valuable antioxidants
(known as proanthocyninidins), and has
a good shelf life.
Very rich in vitamins, minerals and linoleic acid.
It's a light and penetrating oil for massage.
It's used in lotions, balms, creams, and soap.
The skin absorbs it easily; it has no perceptible odor.
Since it is slightly astringent,
it tightens and tones the skin.
Will not aggravate acne.

This is one oil that is nearly impossible to extract
through cold pressure due to its very low oil yield.
