Grapeseed oil is known for its, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties.
These properties, along with the high amounts of omega-chain fatty acids and vitamin E contained in grapeseed oil, have made it a popular topical treatment for the skin. Current research indicates that it’s a powerful, promising ingredient that can improve your skin’s appearance and reduce some signs of aging with little risk of side effects. Because of the proven antimicrobial properties of grapeseed oil, some people use it to treat acne outbreaks. Antioxidants — such as vitamin E, proanthocyanidin, flavonoids, carotenoids, phenolic acids, tannins, and stilbenes — give it great anti-aging and anti-inflammatory effects. Vitamin E, for example, contributes to the beneficial effects of this oil because of its high antioxidant activity and protection of skin cells.
