Carrot Seed Essential Oil: Uses, Benefits, and Blends

Carrot seed essential oil is full of antioxidants, making it a popular ingredient in many beauty products. Research indicates it offers rejuvenating effects, including the ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines. Continue reading to find out how the addition of carrot seed oil to everyday products can get you glowing with good health.

Ancient Greek literature suggests carrot seed oil was often an ingredient in herbal beauty products. It was believed to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fade dark spots related to aging, and enhance skin glow. In addition during a time of no toothpaste, mouthwash, or shampoo, carrot oil was often used as an alternative. Over the past two decades, the use of carrot oil has been rapidly increasing as research further showcases the potential benefits this oil and its properties have to offer.

Difference Between Carrot Oil and Carrot Seed Essential Oil

Carrot oil is a type of cooking oil containing juices from the crushed roots of common carrots. These juices are then mixed with a carrier oil, such as coconut or olive. It is important to understand that carrot seed essential oil comes from the steam-distilled extraction of the Daucus Carota seed. It is very potent, and you should never ingest it or apply it directly to your skin. You may be picturing the seeds of common grocery carrots, but the oil-producing seeds actually belong to a wild species. First cultivated in Ancient Greece, these carrots are now grown in many other areas around the world. When extracted this oil has a sweet, earthy aroma and is a beautiful golden-yellow. For the purposes of this article, when we use the term “carrot oil”, we are referring to the essential oil.

Carrot Seed Essential Oil Benefits: Component Breakdown

    • Carotol: Carotol is a primary component in the makeup of carrot oil. It is a sesquiterpene and studies indicate it has the potential to be a natural antifungal agent, particularly against rice fungi. In addition, carotol proves itself to be strongly effective as a natural mosquito repellent. 
    • a-Pinene: a-Pinene is a monoterpene and is commonly found in the essential essences of plants. It is what gives pine needles their resinous aroma, hence the name. Studies indicate a-pinene to be an effective antimicrobial agent as well as a significant anti-inflammatory. It contributes a lot to the carrot seed essential oil benefits. 
    • Dauca-4,8-diene: This component, also known as daucene, is part of a class of naturally occurring compounds known as sesquiterpenoids.
    • B-caryophyllene: Caryophyllene is actually a cannabinoid, though it has no psychoactive properties. It has an aroma reminiscent of that of black pepper, and studies indicate its anti-inflammatory effects may be effective in battling chronic diseases, such as diabetes. It is another component on which the carrot seed essential oil benefits are dependent on.

Carrot Seed Essential Oil Uses: For Wholesale Purposes

Skincare

Skincare comes first to the mind when it comes to the carrot seed essential oil uses. As mentioned, carrot seed oil is high in antioxidants. Antioxidants are crucial to health and well-being, as they help to eradicate free radicals. When free radicals build up, your body will suffer from oxidative stress. This can lead to serious illnesses such as cancer. Certain studies indicate that the topical application of antioxidants can help offer protection against free radicals, therefore helping to prevent visible signs of aging and sun damage. 

Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is another one from the list of carrot seed essential oil uses. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, carrot oil may be able to help reduce inflammation. It is possible to achieve the benefits of aromatherapy through massage, meaning the addition of a few drops of carrot oil may offer relief to those suffering from sore muscles and joints. Be careful not to ingest or come in direct contact with undiluted carrot seed oil, as it is very strong. The oil can also cause the skin to become sensitive to sunlight. This means you should be careful to rinse it off before going outside.

Another method of aromatherapy is through the stimulation of the olfactory system. Diffusing essential oils can offer many positive benefits, and carrot seed is no exception. Despite how popular aromatherapy is, more research is necessary to gauge just how far its benefits may go. Despite the lack of science-based evidence, anecdotal claims indicate that diffusing essential oils helps to reduce feelings of anxiety and stress. Carrot seed oil offers a woodsy, earthy scent, which often appeals to users who wish to avoid stronger, more intense scents like Lavender or Citrus. Alternatively, you may also choose to add a few drops of this oil to a hot bath. 

Soap Making

Due to its potential ability to induce cell regeneration, carrot oil is a great addition to any natural, organic soap. In addition to being both a natural antifungal and antibacterial, it also offers up its sweet, musky aroma.

What Blends Well with Carrot Seed Essential Oil?

When mixed with other essential oils, carrot oil can provide an earthy tone to any aromatic blend. Recommended oils include spice and citrus, as well as Lavender, Cedarwood, Geranium, Juniper Berry and Bergamot.

Precautions

People often get carrot oil and carrot seed essential oil mixed up. This means many websites and online forums inadvertently suggest adding essential oils to food and drinks. However, at VINEVIDA we are strongly against this practice. The carrot oil meant for cooking is entirely different from the potent essential oil that is meant for external use only.

If applying carrot seed essential oil topically, always make sure to dilute it first and rinse off before going into the sun. Keep away from pets and small children, making sure they are unable to ingest or come into direct contact with it.

Conclusion

Carrot seed oil shows immense promise as a beauty agent. Its high level of antioxidants combined with its antibacterial properties makes it a great additive to many products, including face serums, toners, and moisturizers.

Leveling the playing field
Format: Hardcover
It is a not so tightly held secret that the Republicans know how to manipulate emotions for political advantage; with this book Drew Westen levels the playing field by not only providing insight into how emotions are evoked and taken advantage of politically, but also provides evidence-driven suggestions for the Democratic party to follow. The question, of course, is will the Democrats change their electoral strategies taking Dr. Westen's suggestions to heart, or will they follow the failed tactics of the Gore and Kerry campaigns, which relied on consultants following a rational-choice model of politics that prefers watered down political positions and milquetoast candidates in hopes of taking the "center". While some may argue that this book is unethical by advocating the targeting of voters' emotions, instead of their "rational thought process", and thus is supportive of public manipulation, a very strong counter-argument might be made that putting this information in the public domain will help voters inoculate themselves against current Republican strategies which rely on scaring the public and arousing their anger against others using a range of techniques that border on the illegal. Specifically, the "RATS" subliminal advertisement used by the Bush 2000 campaign to attack Gore is, on close scrutiny, a very astute and professional advertisement that takes advantage of knowledge in the academic sphere that humans process information outside of conscious awareness. Specifically, a 1986 article in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology by Fazio et al. provided evidence that not only did the term "RATS" have a negative effect on peoples' evaluation of items presented afterwards, but that further, the term "Reagan" had a weak positive effect. Likewise, both Westen and colleagues and Stewart and Schubert(in Harvard International Journal of Press/Politics, 2006), in separate studies, suggest that the term "RATS" is an effective subliminal. Furthermore, the use of fear/anxiety by the current administration is well established, with studies showing a correlation between changes in the Homeland Security color-coded threat indicator and political tactics. While one might argue over the timing of the Iraq invasion, and whether it was carried out for short-term political expediency, or to address a perceived threat in the region, one cannot argue with the rally effect that bolstered President Bush's ratings to over 90% immediately after 9-11 and over 70% after the Iraq invasion. Knowing that humans respond in predictable ways when different emotions are evoked allows not just politicians, consultants, academics and wonks to understand human behavior, but also will give the average citizen greater awareness of how the emotions evoked affect their decisions and responses. In other words, a more intelligent population may come from a more emotionally astute population.

A compelling counternarrative
Format: Hardcover
"The Political Brain" by Drew Westen is an important contribution to the political science literature in general and an inspiration for Democratic Party supporters in particular. Mr. Westen's knowledge of psychology and the cognitive sciences provides insight into how the individual develops a political consciousness. Showing how the Republican Party has gained advantage by developing an emotionally fear-laden narrative designed to exploit the electorate's psychic sensibilities, Mr. Westen argues that Democrats can and must develop a compelling counternarrative that appeals to the American public's better angels in order to inspire their supporters and win consistently at the polls. The first section discusses the mind, brain and emotion in politics. Mr. Westen draws upon the latest scientific research to explain how emotion is integral to the brain's cognitive function. Mr. Westen recites passages delivered by Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Bill Clinton to illustrate how political messages are most effective when they tie issues to emotionally resonant themes and images. Importantly, Mr. Westen also deconstructs the neoliberal ideology of Ronald Reagan to help us better understand the importance of evolutionary psychology and crafting popular messages with curb appeal. The second section provides a blueprint for executing emotionally compelling campaigns. Mr. Westen explores the multiple layers of voter intelligence to reveal how Republicans have successfully used subliminal messaging to activate the public's feelings of anxiety in order to get people to vote against their own material self-interests. The author stresses that when Democratics shy away from conflict, voters instinctively detect weakness; therefore he recommends that Democrats cede nothing and go after issues that many voters tend to perceive as Republican. To that end, Mr. Westen offers a series of principled narratives on contentious issues such as abortion, affirmative action, gay rights and gun control that he believes could easily help the Democrats gain majority support by activating the American voter's sense of fairness, freedom and equality of opportunity. While perhaps not fully convincing on all subjects, Mr. Westen amply demonstrates that a coherent and inspirational counternarrative is possible. Unfortunately, this otherwise excellent book succumbs to a transparent attempt at self-promotion by forcing readers to go to the author's website to read the footnotes. Boo! Yet despite this minor deficiency, I highly recommend this timely and fascinating book to everyone.

Essential reading for Democratic campaign managers
Format: Kindle
For decades it has frustrated me that, while most of the country shares Democratic beliefs over Republican ones, Democrats keep losing elections. Why? Because the very values Democrats hold dear...taking the higher road, trying to stay "above the fray", concentrating on issues over personalities...fail to speak to the emotional brain that makes most voters' electoral decisions. Whether it's the language they use while failing to understand its connotations, over-handling by committees that blunt the message, or simple refusal to debate some topics at all (abortion, gun control, race) thereby defaulting on them to the Republicans, Democrats systematically undermine their own campaigns. Westen's book is must reading for every Democrat who wants to hold public office! Thus, the five stars. On the other hand, Westen makes his point clearly and firmly in the first third of the book, and then beats us over the head with it, taking us point by point through campaigns, tweaking the information endlessly, and frankly, about halfway through I started skimming and eventually put it down. "I get it already!" I thought, and moved on. Also, this is horribly produced ebook. It's obviously scanned from a printed copy and poorly proofread, it at all. When Westen talks about the perception of the word "gull" and how it affects elections, you have to read a bit to understand that it's the word "gun" he's talking about! Words bizarrely split, words run together, bizarre punctuation and misspelling due to OCR errors are rife on every single page. Furthermore, the type looks like bad photocopying with the machine set on "light." Ugly, ugly, ugly. Yet the publisher (Hatchette) charges nearly as much for the ebook as for the print book, which I'm sure looks a lot better. It couldn't look any worse. If I could, I'd rate it "five stars" for the content, downgrade it to "three stars" for being redundant, and finally give it "one star" for being so terribly produced. That first third of the book, though, is so important for Democrats to understand (the Republicans already have a masterful grasp of it) that I went with the "five star" rating.

A Bitter Pill, but Much Needed Knowledge
Format: Kindle
Its thesis is that we, as humans, are predisposed to emotional, gut-level decision-making. Although most liberals will not want to accept this, author, Drew Westen, makes his case so well even the most inveterate ostriches must pull their heads out of the sand. We believe first, then we seek to support our beliefs. How we come to believe is a complex interaction of genetics and environment, which Westen makes no effort to reveal. What he focuses on is the counter-productive illusion that facts and issues matter more than the emotions underlying the principles we value most in life. And Westen disabuses the reader of this illusion quite completely, giving examples of what should have been said and what should have been done in Democrat campaigns in response to Republican attack. As a psychologist, Westin teaches us how the human brain works and why it is important for liberal politics to know how it works before selecting a candidate and mounting a campaign.
