Sunflower Oil contains useful amounts of essential fatty acids and a high amount of vitamin E. Since it is inexpensive it can be blended with a variety of other base oils. Generally, absorption is not as good as other carrier oils, and it does tend to leave an oily feeling on the skin. The aroma is a faint and sweet, slightly nutty scent. Sunflower oil is expressed from the seed. Sunflower oil is good for all skin types for use in beauty and skin care, however, it should be diluted with another carrier oil such as sweet almond. It may be used as a substitute for olive oil in soaps, where it provides stable, conditioning lather to bar soaps. It is a very lightweight oil making it a perfect choice for bath oils, and lotions, but is not as suitable for massage due to the absorption rate.
