Sesame Oil (Sesamum indicum)-
Exceptionally rich and exquisite, this oil comes from choice sesame grown organically. This sesame oil is processed with strict standards and is used extensively in Ayurveda.
Great as an all-over body moisturizer or massage oil. Sesame oil is light, odor-free and spreads easily over skin. It absorbs readily, with no greasy feeling. It is rich in nutrients and because it's rich in nutrients it is a good choice for those who like body oils or need extra moisturizing.
Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to a tablespoon of sesame oil and you have a light, pure body perfume. This cold-pressed oil is lightweight and rich in vitamin E, protein, lecithin and minerals - all of which are essential to healthy skin.
Sesame oil helps speed healing, prevent drying, soften skin, and even has a natural sunscreen effect of SPF4. It's recommended as a carrier oil (for aromatherapy treatments), a base for massage oil, bath oil or all-over body oil.
The most esteemed seed oil in all of Ayurveda, sesame seed oil, or til, contains the lignin sesamin known for its healing properties.
