Love it!
I originally purchased this as a carrier oil, but for the sake of review decided to try it out by itself. It smells well, like what it is, an oil. Not heavy like a vegetable oil, but a light natural smell. It isn't very heavy, which was surprising. My skin tends to be a little on the oily side, and I have sensory issues with anything to heavy, greasy, or oily going on my face. I was surprised at how light it felt, and it went on smoothly. While my skin did feel greasy at first, I noticed it wasn't shiny like when I use coconut oil. It absorbed well into my skin. It probably took about 15 minutes before the oily feeling was completely gone. My skin feels like velvet now. I am really surprised that all the hype I have read about grapeseed oil seem to actually be true. I am looking forward to using it with some of my essential oils. This is a great size of oil as well, considering how many ways I am going to use it now. I really think it may replace my daily morning moisturizer. I would absolutely recommend this to my friends and family.I received this product at a discount or free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

I feel like I was
I only bought this because I thought it was cold pressed as described. It is expeller pressed! I feel like I was misled

This grape Seed Oil is great for many uses
My package showed up on time and without damage and or any leaks. This grape Seed Oil is great for many uses.I am currently using this along with coconut oil to mix with my Organic face cream .Works great without clogging my pores or causing any irritation to my skin.I am also adding this to my Hair Conditioner which has helped keep my hair frizz free and repaired dry,spit ends.Sometimes I have used this alone in my hair as a mask for a half an hr or so and it does wonders for my hair.Many uses for this.I will repurchase when I'm getting low.Here are some benefits of grapeseed oil:Studies suggest that Grape Seed Oil and its Extract constitute anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-histamine, anti-aging, anti-allergic, antimicrobial, and adaptogenic activity. Therefore, it has been beneficial in the treatment of a number of health issues which include: arthritis, edema, dermatitis, acne, wrinkles, dry and itchy skin, age spots, sun burns, chapped lips, wounds, bruising, stretch marks, varicose veins, hemorrhoids, chronic venous insufficiency, premature aging, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), weight loss, stress, dandruff, hair loss, warts, cardiovascular diseases especially atherosclerosis, hypertension, high cholesterol levels, diabetes, visual impairment, cataract, and macular degeneration. Studies also suggest that its free radical scavenging activity may strengthen the immune system and reduce the risk of developing cancer.Uses of Grape Seed OilACNE AND DERMATITISResearch suggests that the linoleic acid in Grape Seed Oil has anti-inflammatory, anti-allergen, acne reductive, and moisture retentive properties. It contains 73% of linoleic acid which may be beneficial in the treatment of acne, dermatitis, allergic reactions, atopic eczema and dry and itchy skin. A simple remedy for these skin conditions is to apply Grape Seed Oil onto the affected skin 2-3 times daily. Regular oral intake of Grape Seed Extract supplements can also add to the benefits.AGE SPOTS AND SUN BURNThe rich nutrients in Grape Seed extract have been found to protect against UV radiation, and they have been found to lighten the effects on age spots and pigmented skin caused by ultra violet rays. Threfore simply taking Grapeseed supplements daily may heal and minimize the risk of sunburn and reduce the appearance of age spots. Applying a small amount of Grape Seed Oil onto affected skin areas can also be beneficial.CANCER PREVENTIONA few studies suggest that regular oral intake of Grape Seed Extract may suppress the development of different types of cancers and may induce apoptosis - a process that triggers the self-destruction and elimination of damaged and superfluous cells in many cellular systems. Therefore, taking one Grapeseed capsule two to three times daily may be helpful as a preventive measure for people who are at a high risk of the disease. It may also help with liver damage and other side effects caused by chemotherapy medication.DIABETESA number of intensive studies have shown that oral intake of linoleic acid can reduce the complications associated with Diabetes. Therefore, regular consumption of Grape Seed Extract, which is rich in linoleic acid and other antiglycemic components, may help with diabetes and visual impairment in diabetics. A recommendation is to take one Grapeseed capsule twice daily.HEMORRHOIDSVaricose veins, spider veins and hemorrhoids are caused by damaged blood vessels and compromise the ability of the capillaries to manage blood flow in the veins, which results in pooling of the blood inside the veins. Grapeseed Oil contains oligomeric proanthocyanidin and flavonoids, which are known to help with capillary integrity. Therefore, taking one Grape Seed Extract capsule twice daily may be beneficial for damaged vessels, impaired capillary valves and poor blood circulation that cause hemorrhoids and varicose veins.HIGH BLOOD PRESSURERecent research has shown that Grape Seed may improve damaged blood vessels and help regulate high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels. Therefore, taking one capsule of Grapeseed Extract daily may help improve cardiovascular health.RHEUMATOID ARTHRITISStudies have shown that Grape Seed Oil may improve the production of collagen which is important for maintaining healthy connective tissues in our joints. Its anti-inflammatory activity may also reduce the pain caused by arthritis. A simple remedy is to start taking 1 teaspoon of Grape Seed Oil daily on an empty stomach for 7 days and then reduce the amount to 1/2 teaspoon daily on an empty stomach.WRINKLES AND STRETCH MARKSStudies have shown that the antioxidant activity of Grape Seed Extract may reduce the damage to skin cells and enhance the production of collagen and elastin which is important for strong and healthy looking skin. Therefore taking Grapeseed supplements daily may help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, stretch marks, and saggy skin. A suggested remedy is to also apply Grapeseed Oil onto the affected skin daily overnight. Alternatively, one to two drops of Grape Seed Oil can be added to your face moisturizer to enhance its effectiveness.What are the Side Effects of Grape Seed Oil?There are not any reported side effects or drug interactions with Grape Seed Extract when taken in moderation. The FDA has issued the GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) certification for Grape Seed Extract. However, an overdose of Grape Seed Extract may cause headache, nausea, dizziness and abdominal pain. As with any dietary oil, do not take more than the recommended dose of Grape Seed Oil because it may lead to diarrhea and soft stools. Do not take Grape Seed products if you are allergic to grapes. Additionally, if you are being treated for heart conditions, or are taking any cholesterol or blood pressure lowering medications or blood thinners, consult your doctor and regulate your cholesterol and blood pressure levels when using Grape Seed Oil or its Extract for therapeutic purposes. Grape Seed Oil is not recommended for cooking since it has a high concentration of polyunsaturated fat. Oils with high polyunsatured fat tend to quickly undergo oxidation when exposed to heat, which can cause the oil to become rancid.I received this product at a discount for my honest and unbiased review.

Great carrier oil.
I really love Amazing Ayurveda products, especially the oils. The oils that I have used from Amazing Ayurveda have been pure and organic. I have had no problems with them at all. I will gladly buy all of my oils from them in the future.This grape seed oil makes a great carrier oil. I use grape seed oil for moisturizing my skin. Since it is so light and thin, It leaves a glossy film over my skin when I use it as a carrier oil for lavender and rosemary. It moisturizers my skin, and also helps to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. I use it on days where it is cold, or I'm not doing much sweating. I also use the grape seed oil for massaging into my feet and hands. It is a great massage oil to use, because it does not stain, and it absorbs quickly into the skin. My husband and sons also like to use it in place of their regular shaving gel. Grape seed oil contains minerals and vitamins, and has no chemical fragrance to it. The only scent you will find is a slight nutty scent, nothing overwhelming or overpowering. I also like to use it as a natural sunscreen, especially around my face. I let my neighbor use it on her infant. She loved it o much, she bought some, too. The great thing about this carrier oil is that you just need a little bit. It comes with a dropper, so I only use 3 to 4 drops at a time. This bottle is big enough that it will last for a long time. It is important to make sure of the processing of any kernel oils that you use. It should be either cold pressed or expeller pressed. You can also tell if it is 100% natural and pure grape seed oil, by the way it feels. Any seed oils that are not 100% pure will leave a greasy film on your skin. That is not the case with this oil. It does not leave any residue behind, and absorbs quickly into your skin. It usually takes 2 to 3 minutes for dry skin, a little bit more for normal to oily skin. I highly recommend this grape seed oil to anyone that is looking for a carrier oil or a great massage oil.I bought this product at a discount for my honest, unbiased opinion. I have no ties to the company and want you, as a consumer, to have enough confidence in my review so that you can make an informed decision on whether these are right for you or not.
