Hydrates and revitalizes
Grape Seed Oil is a great moisturizing face oil for oily, acne-prone, or congested skin. It is a lightweight oil that is easily absorbed and is mostly non-comedogenic. Its rich omega 6 content helps fortify the skin's protective barrier to prevent dehydration. Vitamin E, phenols, and other antioxidants in the oil help restore skin's vitality and protect it from harmful free radicals, thereby enhancing the appearance of the skin.
Fights acne
High linolenic acid in the Grape Seed Oil helps strengthen the skin barrier and minimize acne breakouts. Its toning properties help in closing pores and minimizing the risk of acne. Its anti-inflammatory properties help in easing the symptoms of existing acne.
Delays aging
Grape Seed Oil contains antioxidants such as vitamin E, phenolic compounds, and phytosterols that fight harmful free radicals and prevent premature aging. It also helps to boost collagen repair, thereby delaying aging. Linoleic acid in the oil forms a protective barrier over the skin, protecting it from harsh environmental factors such as UV damage and pollution, which damage the epidermal layer leaving it prone to premature aging.
Hair
(Suitable for all hair types)
Tames frizzy hair
Grape Seed Oil acts as a natural and effective leave-in-conditioner. It smoothens out dry and coarse hair, provides a silky texture, and tames frizz and flyaway strands. Omega 6 fatty acid in the oil can penetrate the hair cuticles, helping the hair to lock-in moisture and prevent water loss, thereby preventing frizz. Rub a few drops in your palm and then run your hands and fingers through damp or towel-dried hair.
Balances sebum production
Massaging Grape Seed Oil to your scalp can help balance the sebum production, which naturally lends a shine to the hair.
Prevents hair fall
Grape Seed Oil may prevent hair thinning due to its hydrating, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Its antioxidant property could prevent hair fall by reducing oxidative stress that causes damage to the hair follicles.

Culinary
Grape Seed Oil is becoming popular as an alternative cooking oil. It is a relatively stable oil with a high smoking point and is a good substitute for refined oils such as sunflower. It contains a fair amount of vitamin E, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and polyphenols which are beneficial for health. However, experts suggest limiting the intake of Grape Seed Oil because of its high omega 6 fatty acids content, which, when taken in excess, causes inflammation.
