Carrot Seed
Skin rejuvenation, anti-aging, detoxifying, liver support, antioxidant
Carrot seed oil is steam-distilled from the dried seeds of Daucus carota, the wild ancestor of the cultivated carrot. Unlike the familiar orange root vegetable, wild carrot (also known as Queen Anne's lace) produces seeds that yield a pale yellow to amber essential oil with a distinctive earthy, slightly sweet, and herbaceous aroma. Carrot seed oil is renowned in natural skincare for its remarkable cell-regenerative and detoxifying properties, attributed to its high carotol content and unique sesquiterpene profile. Our carrot seed oil is produced from wild-crafted and organically cultivated plants in Xinjiang Province, where the arid climate and long daylight hours promote optimal seed essential oil accumulation. Each batch is GC-analyzed for carotol percentage, ensuring consistent quality for premium cosmetic and aromatherapy formulations.
