Frequently Asked Questions
Does Sesame oil go bad?
  • Sesame seed oil will go rancid after a period of time due to its content of unsaturated fats. Cold pressed Sesame oil normally lasts about one year but if stored properly in a cool dark place, such as a refrigerator, Sesame oil may last slightly longer with about 2 years being its maximum capacity. When expired, Sesame oil will give off a sour, rancid odor. To dispose of expired Sesame oil, seal it in its container and place in the trash or you can consider composting the oil.
Is Sesame oil gluten free?
  • Both Sesame oil and roasted sesame vegetable oil are gluten free. For those with gluten sensitivities and allergies, Sesame oil is safe for topical use and consumption. It has a nutty flavor and is used as an ingredient in cooking often. However, for those with nut or seed allergies and for those whose skin is easily irritated, it is recommended to perform a skin patch test of Sesame oil on the inner arm for 24 hours before using over a larger portion of the body. If redness, itchiness or irritation occurs, discontinue use.
What is Sesame oil used for?
  • Sesame oil contains fatty acids oleic, palmitic, stearic, and linoleic and a plethora of health benefits including moisturizing dry skin. It can help to maintain hydration and soften skin. Containing both vitamin E and vitamin A, these essential nutrients bolster the healing properties of this oil allowing for skin cell repair with conditions such as acne and dry skin conditions as well as wound healing. Used for mature skin, it can reduce wrinkles and fine lines. It is also beneficial to ease conditions of the scalp and strengthen hair follicles.
Is Sesame oil anti-inflammatory?
  • As an oil with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties from its essential fatty acids and Vitamin components, Sesame oil is beneficial to use on skin irritation, dry skin conditions and to reduce oxidative stress and free radical damage. Sesame oil is very good for the body due to its high content of unsaturated fat which helps to reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglyceride levels.
Is Sesame oil good for skin?
  • Widely used in Ayurvedic medicine, Sesame oil has a comedogenic rating of 3. It's a potent antibacterial noted for its wound healing and its ability to reduce acne breakouts. However, for those with sensitive skin, the oil is somewhat thicker and the stearic acid may clog pores. It also leaves an oily residue on the skin.

A King of Carrier Oils

I read about the benefits of Sesame oil and got a bottle to use in my homemade body blend.
Sesame somehow helps castor oil to actually soak in more quickly so my skin is soft but I can get dressed! I use it at night, too!
I have extremely dry skin on my arms and legs (all my life) and nothing worked before I started creating my own oil blend.
Will always have this on hand!

It's a great carrier for my essentials oils!

I also love this oil as it is a wonderful catalyst for my myrrh, frankincense, sandalwood and just about any other earthy essential oil I own. It also moisturizes wonderfully! And it's scent matches well with the oils I just named. At first I couldn't rea

Dangerously good

This morning I applied this carrier oil, mixed with an essential oil. I enjoyed the light fragrance. And apparently so did my cat. She kept trying to lick my skin and ended up chasing me around the bathroom to try and get another taste. I do recommend this but be warned that you might smell too good.

SUMMERTIME SKIN, HAIR REPAIR

The natural scent of this carrier oil reminds me of Cracker Jack Popcorn. I had no idea what this would smell like before purchasing, almost makes me wanna go to the movies or a carnival, but then again i already smell like i have. It’s kinda weird mixing with essential oil’s, doesn’t smell like anything really goes, being this is more of a food type.
Upon application it didn’t make me feel disgusting, The smell of this to me doesn’t really linger but those with a sensitive nose might be annoyed by the base note if mixing. I just might save this and use it during dry hot summer night's in the desert, for a healthy healing moisturizer, after spending hours sun bathing or when I don’t feel the need to wear essential oil’s, and just want something Foodie and fun.

Glowing, fabulous skin

This is a must purchase if you are trying to get glowing, fabulous skin. I use 2 to 3 drops of this warmed by rubbing my palms together and then massage upward in circles into my face. I then take a washcloth and run the hottest tap water I can stand on it and wring out and steam my face with it twice. Then, after the second time I wipe my face in massaging circles to remove the excess and the dirt and makeup. I then splash cold water on my face to close the pores. Dry and then take 2 more drops and massage in as a moisturizer. I need nothing else. I have not broken out, the little white bumps are gone and I have only been using this for a week and a half. I even use it in my hair while wet. Only 2 to 4 drops on wet hair (2 if its dry unless I am doing a treatment before shampooing). I have color treated, abused, dry hair and it looks amazing. Body, shine, health...I could not recommend anything more highly.
