What are carrier oils?
“Carrier Oil” is a term generally used in the contexts of aromatherapy and cosmetic recipes for natural skin and hair care.
Carrier oils and essential oils are made from plants. Carrier oils are used to dilute essential oils and “carry” them to your skin. That’s because essential oils are potent and can cause irritation when applied directly to your skin.
A Carrier Oil is a vital aspect of an aromatherapy massage or a natural cosmetic such as a soap, bath oil, body oil, cream, lip balm, lotion, or other moisturizer, as it can affect the usefulness of the massage and the color, scent, therapeutic properties, and shelf life of the final product, respectively.
Most carrier oils are unscented or lightly scented and don’t interfere with an essential oil’s therapeutic properties. They may be used alone or with other oils to nourish your skin.
Cold Pressing
It is a chemical-free process that involves placing the nuts or seeds in a horizontal press that has an 'expeller,' which is a rotating screw. The screw drives the nuts and seeds through a barrel-shaped hollow and compresses them until the high pressure squeezes out the oil, which seeps out through the opening, while the ‘meal,’ or the debris, remains inside the barrel. The oil is then filtered, resulting in the finished product. Due to the absence of solvent residues in Cold Pressing, the outcome is cleaner, purer oils that are higher in natural colors and scents.
Benefits & Uses
Helps with hair growth
Pumpkin seed oil may slow the production of 5-alpha reductase enzymes, which can slow your hair growth. Taking a pumpkin seed oil supplement may help to stimulate hair growth — good to know if you went a little overboard on your DIY bang trim.
Boosts hair shine
It’s those omega fatty acids again! This time, they’re boosting the smoothness and shine of your hair as well as its overall condition—whether you ingest or use pumpkin seed oil topically. This is, of course, a must for anyone with processed or colored hair that can dry out quickly.
Radical defense
Rich in vitamin E, zinc, and a host of antioxidants, pumpkin seed oil, when applied to the skin, might help to reduce free-radical damage, keeping skin looking younger.
Moisture, moisture, moisture
The high omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid content in pumpkin seed oil make it a moisturizing powerhouse — a must during the colder autumn and winter months when skin can become dry and lackluster.
