Carrot oil

Carrots are most often associated with a vegetable added to soup or salad. Grandmothers always tell about the health benefits of this vegetable. Few people are aware of its properties and other uses, including in cosmetics.

The most common effect observed is bronzing, giving the skin a pleasant warm tint. However, carrot macerate has many other benefits. The undeniable anti-inflammatory properties of the contained beta-carotene increase immunity against infections, accelerate the healing of microdamages, and alleviate the effects of sunburns.

The presence of vitamins A and E guarantees antioxidant properties, destroying free radicals. In addition, carrot preparations boast of increasing cell hydration and abolishing the unpleasant feeling of roughness. Tightening properties prevent the appearance of wrinkles and deepening of already existing ones. Its many benefits have made carrot oil a popular addition to emulsions and oils for dry, mature skin with a tendency to peeling. It is increasingly used in the manufacture of sunscreens.
