7. Why are cold-pressed oils taking the beauty industry by storm?

 What you put on your skin is just as important as what you put in your food. Just like organic oils that better your food, cold-pressed oils are the new trend in taking care of your skin’s health. Read on to find more about these nourishing oils.   Many dermatologists have recommended constant care of the skin, especially the sensitive and dry skin to look radiant and vibrant. Cold-pressed nourishing oils have been much in demand turning out to be heroes in the skin and hair care regime in the beauty industry as per the recent trends.  What is cold-pressed oil? The name is suggestive of the process of extraction of the oil from organic seeds, fruits and nuts without using any chemicals or solvents like hexane in cold temperature. The tedious cold screw pressed extraction of the oil ensures that it retains all its properties of flavor and nutrients. Needless to mention, they are dearer than other oils due to their lower yield.    How does it benefit your skin and hair? Cold-pressed oils are rich in natural nutrients, aroma, anti-oxidants, and additionally, they are cholesterol and trans-fat free. On the flip side, they have a short shelf life.  Some benefits of the oils are:  

• Face: Oils from orange, citrus, tea tree etc. are ideal for oily skin with open pores and pigmentation breakouts.
