Carrot Root Oil Extract is a specialty extract of active carotenoid compounds blended in sunflower and sweet almond oils.
It is used mainly as a Provitamin A-carrier in scalp care, sun protection, day creams, night creams, baby-care, and skin oils. Regular use of the oil can benefit dry skin and wrinkled skin and it acts as a regulator for sebum production. This makes carrot oil extract highly suitable for after-sun preparations. For more information read the Oil of the Week blog.
Size: 10ml, 30ml (with 'eye dropper' pipette).
Regular use of the oil can benefit dry skin and wrinkled skin because it acts as a regulator for grease balance. This makes carrot oil extract highly suitable for after-sun preparations.
Carrot root oil is formulated through CO2 extraction of the essence of dried carrot roots into pure sunflower and sweet almond oil. It is extremely high in beta-carotene, and vitamins A and E. It should be noted that carrot root is a speciality extract and different from carrot seed essential oil, which is steam-distilled from the seeds and plant of the wild carrot.
Standardised essential oils are produced to achieve a standard scent, whereas a single species essential oil may vary in scent because it is an individual plant species that can naturally vary with season, rainfall, soil quality, geography and a variety of other factors. Standardising the scent by combining multiple species is a method of producing an oil that will always be similar in quality. Standardised oils can therefore be quite beneficial when scent reliability is required.
Standardised essential oils are pure essential oils which have not been diluted, filled or altered in any way. The only differentiating factor between standardised essential oils and others is that multiple variations of plant species are distilled.
