Dispensed by weight. Grapeseed Oil ( Vitis vinifera ) is an ecologically sound product that is made from the seeds of grapes after the wine is pressed. Grapeseed oil is high in vitamin E and contains essential fatty acid and linoleic acid (also known as Omega 6).
It is low in saturated fat, contains natural chlorophyll and valuable antioxidants (known as proanthocyninidins) and has a good shelf life. This oil is very rich in vitamins and minerals. It's a light and penetrating oil for massage and is also used to create lotions, balms, creams and soap. The skin absorbs grapeseed oil easily; it has no perceptible odor. Since it is slightly astringent, it tightens and tones the skin; will not aggravate acne.
This is one oil that is nearly impossible to extract through cold pressure due to its very low oil yield, it is solvent extracted. Virtually all solvents are removed from vegetable oils during the manufacturing process. The color of grapeseed oil is in the green color range but will vary from batch to batch, could have a yellow tinge at times.
Camden-Grey sells its products only for external use. It is the customer’s responsibility to understand the information contained in a product’s SDS and CofA and to become familiar and well versed in how each product should be used, including a product’s precautions, if any.

I love grapeseed oil. Very soothing, healing and softening! I use this oil in cooking as well as making products. It is great in salads with lemon added for flavor! One oil I will not run out of!

while i have not scientifically tested this grapeseed oil, i must say that visually i am really very much taken by the slight green tint that it has. i have bought grapeseed oil from other companies and never have seen such color. it reminds me of the tint you may find in extra virgin olive oil. i use this regularly in products i make and find the texture lovely.

This is a gorgeous grapeseed oil with it's beautiful natural green color. It's got a very faint, fruity scent and is wonderfully light. It sinks into the skin immediately, making it perfect for facial products.

HOW PRODUCTS ARE DISPENSED...
BOTTLING/PACKAGING:
Essential oils: Are sold only in the quantities/net weights listed on our website. These oils are shipped to us by the distiller or manufacturer in industry-standard metal or plastic containers and that’s how we ship them to you.
Carrier oils and most other liquids are dispensed in individual HDPE plastic pails or containers with some type of handle, each container holds the purchased net weight of liquid.
Soft butters such as Horsetail and Almond are dispensed in plastic HDPE pails w/metal handles; those butters may remain inside the pails indefinitely when properly stored. Hard butters such as Cocoa are dispensed factory-wrapped in plastic and placed inside a box. Castile Gel is dispensed in a self-contained cubitainer with pouring spout.
NOTE: While the packaging methods mentioned above are generalized, we reserve the right to dispense and ship in any available container. If a customer at any time feels more comfortable transferring an essential or carrier oil to glass, this should be done.
Raw materials/ingredients are sold and dispensed by weight. Many customers ask how many ounces are in a pound, there are 16 ounces in one pound. These are not fluid ounces, they are ounces by weight.
HOW TO STORE: EOs, FOs and BUTTERS should be stored in tightly-sealed containers away from direct light and heat. Some EOs and FOs could be highly flammable, keep away from open flames and from varnished or wood surfaces. Keep all liquids and powders you purchase from Camden-Grey tightly capped and away from the reach of children, the elderly or infirm and pets.
