Can I use cooking oil for the face and body?
 I'm sure the question you asked yourself many times. After all, the benefits of vegetable oils for the skin known to all, and the name of the oils which we fill salads, often can be found on the labels of cosmetic products.

Which oil for cooking you meet on the shelves in a supermarket? Sunflower, olive oil, avocado oil, grape seed oil ... Is there a difference between cooking oils and oils for cosmetic use?

The difference is, let's face it. However, there is good news - the difference is very small, it is the intricacies of the production process. To the product can be consumed as food, it must be subjected to special treatment. In other words, olive oil for cooking and cosmetics - are two different things, although very close. For human consumption, oil is further purified, it eliminates the strong odor and taste. Cosmetic oil more concentrated, they use unroasted seeds. It happens that for cosmetic use oil made from lower-quality fruit.

As you can see, there is some difference. And the cooking oil can be safely used for the skin (harm from it will not be exact), but cosmetic oil to use for cooking is not necessary, even if they are called 100% natural and pure.   The fact that the cosmetic oils are stabilized with the use of chemicals which can be harmful for internal consumption.

Particular attention should be paid to the cooking oil marked "organic", "cold-pressed". These oils are especially useful, not only in food, but also for the skin.
