Hazelnut Oil contains useful amounts of essential fatty acids including linoleic acid. It has a faintly nutty aroma, is highly penetrative and is fine textured. It is one of the most highly unsaturated vegetable oils. It has great moisturizing qualities which makes it a good choice to include when mixing a massage oil or preparing a carrier blend.
It is heralded as an oil that helps to tone and tighten the skin while strengthening capillaries and assisting in cell regeneration, and in folk medicine has been used to massage children with respiratory problems. Hazelnut oil has good astringent qualities (and it is said to help maintain the skin's firmness and elasticity), which makes it a superb carrier to use on oily and combination skins. Good for facial blends for oily or combination skin. |
