This essential is simply the best oil for pampering of more mature skin types.
Carrot Seed Oil is primarily used for its therapeutic
applications within skin care. It is especially heralded and prized
for its ability to nurture mature and damaged skin.
Carrot Seed Oil is generally not appreciated for
its aroma. Some consider it a little unpleasant, especially when
evaluating the aroma at full strength. However, its aroma is mild
when blended with other essential oils and nourishing carrier oils.
Carrots have been around the Middle East and throughout Europe for centuries. The Greeks and the Romans were well aware of the medicinal properties of the oil from carrots. Vitamin A and carotene were identified by early alchemists who used a mixture of carrot seed oil, bergamot, and lemon oil to treat a variety of skin and stomach disorders. The oil is harvested from wild carrot seeds using steam distillation. The plant is also the source for carrot oil.
The familiar edible root, which is
unmistakably orange, was actually developed by the Dutch during the 17th
century. The wild flower that Westerners call Queen Anne’s lace, which
decorates bouquets and fills fields with specs of tiny white flowers,
was brought to America by English settlers. The leaves are finely
detailed and the flowers appear in tiny cluster with a purple floret in
the center.
Carrot Seed essential oils,
as the name suggests, are extracted by steam distillation, primarily
from the dried seeds and secondarily from the dried plant itself, of
Wild Carrot, scientifically named as Daucus Carota. Wild Carrot is
common in Europe and is also known by another name “Queen Anne’s Lace”
there.
Carminative: Afraid? Think that you have almost become a balloon? Think that gas in there can lift you up and make you float any moment? If yes? The Carrot Seed oil can keep you glued to the ground. It is widely used in aromatherapy due to its mild and soothing earthy aroma which is very effective in relieving stress and anxiety and gives a refreshing feeling.
Although blending is conditional and there are different blends for
different purposes, Carrot Seed Oil goes well with Bergamot, Juniper,
Lavender, Lemon, Lime, Orange, Avocado, Cedar Wood and Geranium oil.
Have a great Monday,
