HOW TO USE IT

Skin Care

An excellent oil to use for all skin types but especially dry and mature skin. The carotenoids in the oil are natural antioxidants (and also give the oil it’s colour). This antioxidant effect reduces free radical activity within the skin, protecting it from further damage. Use in body butters, creams, lotions and serums.

Gives a healthy glow to dull and dehydrated skin making it look more healthy. It softens the skin and has a regenerative effect. Superb to add colour to any skin type or condition in winter time.

Hair Care

The antioxidant qualities of the oil will reduce oxidation on the hair shaft and protect coloured hair from UV fading. Do not use on freshly bleached hair that has not been toned, as the hair shaft may take on some of the colour of the oil.

TRADITIONAL USE

Traditional Aromatherapy Uses

Traditionally used by qualified aromatherapists as a good antioxidant for skin care whilst giving some colour to very pale skin.

Historical Information

Believed to have had their origins in Persia, carrots have been a popular root vegetable for centuries dating back to 3,000 BC and have undergone several colour changes in that time. Selective breeding has reduced the woodiness of the root and improved the sweetness. It is widely believed that the orange variety was developed by Dutch growers to honour the colour of the Dutch flag and the House of Orange.
