Skin Care With Herbal Oils

[nativehealth]

Vegetable, nut and seed oils have many uses which include acting as a carrier for aromatherapy essential oil applications, healthy cooking, and as a base for your homemade cosmetics. They also work well as stand alone skin care applications. There are several hundred plants known to have oil-bearing seeds, but only a few are produced commercially. Oils that have been extracted through expeller or cold pressed methods offer much better quality and therapeutic benefits than the oils you find lining the shelves at your local supermarket. Oils that have been processed through heat and intensive hydraulic action, or through the use of solvent, hexane or alcohol are undesirable and relatively unhealthy.

Use only unheated and unprocessed oils from a natural product supplier to get the full health benefits, especially those oils used as supplemental sources of important omega-6 fatty acids, (GLA). Mountain Rose has a complete line of quality Herbal Oils and organic carrier oils to choose from.
