"How does sesame oil benefit skin?"When sesame oil is added to skin care products, it forms a barrier on
the skin's surface. Used in items from sunscreens and skin cleansers to
lipstick and moisturizers, sesame seed oil has a unique ability to
soften skin, lips and hair. And since it holds moisture in, sesame oil
can help your skin stay hydrated. Because oils aren't usually
recommended for people with oily skin, sesame oil might be better suited
for people with normal or dry skin types.
In addition to helping your skin,
sesame oil can also keep your 'do in place.
The oil can be used to
condition your hair, but can also protect your hairstyle against the
elements by acting as a shield.
In hair care products, it may keep extra
moisture from being absorbed into the strands, which can cause your
hair to quickly lose its style
Sesame oil might not make you automatically think "skin care," but this
botanical oil could already be part of your beauty routine.
And if you
struggle with dry, itchy skin or hair that goes limp whenever the
humidity is on the rise, you might consider seeking out products that
include sesame oil.
