Umuthi Grapeseed Oil - Cold Pressed is a 100% pure carrier oil cold pressed from the seeds of Vitis vinifera . It is a light, easily absorbed oil used in aromatherapy, massage, skincare, haircare, and general cosmetic formulations. This is a cosmetic oil rather than a certified food-grade oil, so it is intended for external use only. Its lighter skin feel makes it especially useful where a moisturising oil is wanted without a heavy or greasy finish.
♡ Why we love it: Grapeseed oil is a dependable, easy-to-use carrier oil that works beautifully across massage and everyday body care blends. It has a light feel, blends well with essential oils, and is a practical staple for makers who want a versatile South African oil.
