Onion Seed Oil
Extracted from the seeds of the red onion bulb, onion seed carrier oil contains a number of skin and hair-benefiting nutrients and none of the pungent smell of raw onion. Onion seed carrier oil is surprisingly full of antioxidants in addition to containing antimicrobial, antiseptic, and anti-inflammatory properties that allow it to treat certain skin conditions, soothe dandruff, and encourage healthier skin and hair.
When used on the hair and scalp, onion seed carrier oil can promote healthy hair growth. This is due to the sulfur compounds in the oil that work to clear the scalp of dandruff or other conditions and can prevent breakage. Antioxidant properties nourish the hair and leave your locks feeling strong and healthy.
Onion seed carrier oil can benefit your skin with these same antioxidants and anti-microbial properties which help to treat acne, lighten up scars, and protect skin from free radicals.
Because onion seed oil is a carrier oil, it can be blended with your favorite essential oils for fragrance preferences or additional benefits and then massaged directly into your skin. You can also add a small amount into your shampoo and conditioner or a body lotion.
