Soothing qualities of Carrot Infused Oil

Carrot infused oil is a traditional skincare ingredient used in the treatment of all types of skin conditions. It works to nourish and hydrate all skin types, and especially the skin that needs a bit of extra love.

 Carrot oil is great for soothing:
- Shaving rashes

  • Beta carotene, which also gives the oil its rich orange colour
  • Carotenoids and anti-oxidants that help to protect the skin
  • Vitamin A, a gentle anti-oxidant that helps to maintain healthy skin
  • Vitamin E, a useful anti-inflammatory that promotes wound healing and is an exceptional moisturiser
