What it does

Grapeseed oil is extracted from the seeds of grapes, a by-product of winemaking. It is exceptionally high in linoleic acid (omega-6) and contains oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPCs) — powerful antioxidants. Its lightweight texture and rapid absorption make it suitable for oily and combination skin.

Benefits
  • High linoleic acid content supports skin barrier repair
  • Rich in antioxidant OPCs and Vitamin E
  • Very lightweight — absorbs quickly without greasiness
  • Suitable for oily and acne-prone skin
