Ingredient Spotlight: Carrot Seed Oil

History

Carrot seed essential oil is extracted from the seeds or plant of the wild carrot (daucus carota), which is commonly found in Europe and North America. It has small white flowers resembling lace, and therefore is also known as Queen Anne’s Lace.

Skin Benefits

Carrot seed oil has many health benefits, though it is best used in a diluted form or combined with carrier oils such as in our Lemon and Carrot Illuminating Face Serum. Some of the benefits include:

• Antioxidant: beta carotene combats free radicals

• Anti-aging: prevents and reduces lines

• Antiseptic: heals topical wounds

• Heals a variety of skin disorders, such as dermatitis
