CARROT INFUSED OIL*
Daucus carota
The common carrot is well known as one of the most nutrient-rich vegetables, rich in vitamin A and full of health promoting and rejuvenating properties. Infused carrot oil is derived from the root of carrot rather than the seeds, like the essential oil. It has a bright orange colour and a high beta-carotene content, which makes it a useful oil in natural cosmetics and skin care preparations. Beta-carotene is well known for its role in maintaining a healthy complexion and youthful, elastic skin. Thus it is mostly used for nourishing and restorative night creams and to soothe dry and stressed skin. Add between 2-10% to a blend of base oils or butters for skin care preparations.
Do not apply to open wounds.
