(Suitable for all skin types, particularly suitable for oily and acne prone skin | Comedogenic Index: 1)
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.
Body
(Suitable for all skin types, including oily skin)
Moisturizes body
Grape Seed Oil is a great body oil that is very light and is easily absorbed, leaving the skin velvety soft, smooth, and moisturized. It is particularly suitable for oily skin.
Wellness
Soothes skin conditions
Grape Seed Oil has a high content of antioxidants and phytosterols that may reduce the body's inflammatory response. High levels of fatty acids in the oil help moisturize dry skin, and alleviate redness, irritation, inflammation, and swelling.
Culinary
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.

Our careful cold-pressed extraction method ensures that the delicate nutrients of grape seeds are not destroyed by heat. Further, we do not deodorize, decolorize, or refine our Grape Seed Oil. Refining the oil elongates its shelf life, but comes at a cost of destroying some of its natural nutrients. Therefore, we emphasize on using the cold-pressed, non-deodorized, and virgin quality to gain the maximum benefits.
Furthermore, we use specially designed violet-glass bottles to preserve the oil's potency and elongate its shelf life.

Know More
Grape Seed Oil is extracted by pressing the seeds of the grapes and is a by-product of winemaking. For thousands of years, winemakers were left with the grape seeds as a waste by-product. Recent technological advancements have now enabled the manufacturers to extract the oil profitably. Besides being a popular alternative cooking oil, Grape Seed Oil finds applications in the beauty and wellness sectors.
Grapevines are believed to be first grown in Armenia about six millennia ago, and some of the oldest wineries in the world are in Armenia and the surrounding region. Apart from their culinary use, grapes and their seed oil have been used in various cultures for medicinal properties, wellness benefits, and cosmetic applications. Ancient Greek philosophers have documented the wellness benefits of grapes in their medical scriptures. Prophet Daniel in biblical stories uses Grape Seed Oil as an ingredient to make a health-enhancing dish. Other records have shown that European medical practitioners used grape and its extracts to treat skin and eye ailments.
Today, Grape Seed Oil is popular for its culinary use, as well as for its excellent benefits for skin and hair. It is also widely used in the beauty industry for making massage oils, cosmetics, and soaps. Grape Seed Oil contains high amounts of omega 6 fatty acids, vitamin E, and phenolic compounds and exhibits antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. It is a light, non-greasy oil that is easily absorbed and is excellent for all skin types, including sensitive, oily, and acne-prone skin. Grape Seed Oil is gaining prevalence in anti-aging products due to its collagen restoring qualities and its ability to delay the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. When used for hair, Grape Seed Oil provides essential nutrients that help strengthen the hair follicles and improve the scalp's health, leading to lesser hair fall and healthy hair growth.
One of the critical parameters to watch out for is the extraction process of the Grape Seed Oil. It is common to extract the oil using hexane, an organic solvent, to cut costs and improve efficiency. This process has a risk of trace amounts of hexane being left in the oil that can have harmful effects. The oil produced by direct cold-pressing of grape seeds with no use of hexane should be strongly preferred. Besides, the oil should undergo zero or minimal processing after extraction to ensure that all the natural goodness gets captured in the oil. Aroma Tierra Grape Seed Oil is extracted using the cold-pressing method, without using hexane or any other solvents.
