What is cold pressed oil?
Cold-pressed oils have amazing benefits for your skin and health and are a growing trend in the cosmetic industry. The added value of these oils for skin care begins with the extraction process, which is mechanical extraction and does not involve heat or chemical extraction, which requires less energy and is more environmentally friendly . The oils that result from this type of extraction are more nutrient-rich and of high quality. By using cold-pressed oils, you can benefit from a higher level of lipophilic phytochemicals such as antioxidants, more nutritious properties, and a higher fatty acid content than refined oils.
What is cold pressing?
The other type of oils you might come across in your oil research are refined oils. These oils must go through an additional step (chemical and physical refining) to purify or refine the purification of the oil to obtain a more acceptable appearance (clarity), lighter odor and color, and longer stability; the problem is that during this process, most of the essential nutrients and benefits of the oil are lost and the additional energy consumption to make an oil more commercial is of great concern.
