ESTIMATE 6-MINUTES READ

Around here, we are always looking for the best organic ingredients that will make your beauty routine that much better. In fact, we think that the best skincare products are made from these gems, and these gems only. When it comes to moisturizing powerhouses, we’ve uncovered a few favorites that you may have read about in the past. From hyaluronic acid to jojoba oil, it’s safe to say we’ve done the legwork on what your skin deserves. But in this one, we’re diving into one ingredient that is totally underrated. And, that we think you need to know more about. Trust us, sis. You’ll love all of the Benefits of Sunflower Seed Oil for Your Skin and how easy it is to incorporate into your skincare regimen.

Sunflower Seed Oil

Why sunflower seed oil is the real MVP…

Where should we start? The truth is that sunflower seed oil boasts a ton of healing properties and benefits for your skin. From wrinkle-free skin to sun protection, this is one ingredient that just doesn’t get enough credit in the natural beauty world.

First off, what makes this ingredient so stellar is that it contains an abundance of Vitamin E. Meaning, it’s loaded with a powerful antioxidant that will fight free radicals and keep your skin looking *way* youthful. What’s more, Vitamin E works to soften the skin while it protects it from damage. Oh and, it is a natural sun protectant. Pretty impressive, right? In our books, this makes it safe to say that this is one ingredient you definitely want in your skincare routine.

The benefits of sunflower seed oil for your skin go way beyond anti-aging and moisturizing, sis. Sunflower seed oil is an acne-prone best friend. Don’t let the “oil” in this bad boy’s name fool you. This ingredient is known to never clog pores and to leave skin totally unbothered. Meaning, this is one skincare hero every beauty can benefit from – no matter their skin type!

Finally, we love sunflower seed oil for how it can help heal wounded skin. Experts say that this is due to its oleic acid content, which helps the skin replenish itself by increasing cell turnover. Now if that doesn’t make you want to pack your beauty routine with sunflower seed oil, we don’t know what will!

Here’s how you can add some of this natural goodness to your beauty routine, pronto.

Now that you’re all brushed up on the benefits of sunflower seed oil for your skin, we’re sure that you’re ready to bathe in it. Alright, maybe it’s not that extreme of a feeling – but we know you want this skincare superstar in your life, ASAP!

Luckily, incorporating sunflower seed oil into your beauty regimen is super simple. You can choose to apply it in its purest form topically to your skin. Alternatively, you can purchase organic products that already contain some of this glorious oil. Just be sure to do your due diligence when it comes to picking a brand that prioritizes using natural ingredients.
