Have you started using oils in your beauty routine? Let me introduce you to one of my favorite oils right now – grapeseed oil.

For the longest time, I used only coconut oil. I used it as a hair mask, lip balm, body lotion—pretty much everything. But, with so many amazing oils on the market right now, I wanted to try something else.

First of all, my skin tends to get very oily at times, so I wasn’t sure I could use an oil on my face because you know…oil! Everyone says that oil-free products are the way to go when you have oily skin. So I was a bit skeptical at first. However, after I did some research, I found out that oil is not the enemy and it can actually be quite beneficial for your skin.

I got a bottle of grapeseed oil more than four months ago, and I started using it only in the mornings at first. This oil is extremely gentle, and it can be applied directly to your skin. It acts as a natural highlighter, so when you’re out and about, it gives you that pretty dewy look, so natural and feminine.

Now I use grapeseed oil in the mornings and evenings I found out it has some fantastic benefits for your skin.

BENEFITS OF GRAPESEED OIL FOR SKINCARE

  • Fights acne
    Grapeseed oil contains linoleic acid, which is an excellent antioxidant. It doesn’t clog your pores, and it helps with acne and pimples.
  • Improves skin texture and fades scars
    With consistent use, it can help improve the texture of your skin and fade scars.
  • Skin moisturizer
    It is incredibly gentle and quickly absorbed from the skin, which makes it act as a natural moisturizer. It’s also non-greasy, so you’re left with skin as soft as a baby.
  • Anti-aging solution
    Because of all the antioxidants in grape seed oil, it benefits cell renewal and slows down the aging process.
  • Lightens dark circles
    You can basically use grapeseed oil as an eye cream. Because it contains high amounts of vitamin E it works really well when it comes to lightening dark circles around the eyes.

Grapeseed oil can also be used to strengthen hair and moisturize the scalp.

And after doing some more research, I found out that you can even use grapeseed oil to grow your hair faster.

I know that sounds a little too good to be true. But that is all thanks to all those vitamins and minerals that the oil contains.

Have you used grapeseed oil before?

    I have never used grapeseed oil before. How do you use it on your hair?

      You can use it before you wash your hair, by heating up 3-4 tbsp of grape seed oil, then apply to your hair, especially the roots and let it sit, so your hair can absorb it. Then wash your hair.
