Why are Unrefined Oils better for you?
Unrefined oils are either cold-pressed or expeller-pressed, which means they are minimally processed using mechanical extraction (pressure) and low-temperature controlled conditions to extract the oil from the seed, nut, etc.
Why is this so important to our skin?
These relatively gentle methods of extraction allow oils to retain their plant-specific, non-lipid (non-oily) compounds. These compounds give each type of oil its distinctive color, taste, scent and nutritional value. It is this portion of the oil that contains the vitamins, minerals proteins, waxes, plant sterols, carotenes and antioxidants that make up the healing fraction of the oil.
Why avoid refined oils for skincare? When an oil is further refined beyond the initial stages of extraction mentioned above, the oil undergoes various further methods of processing using temperature treatments with heat up to 450°F (232°C) or cold-conditions as low as -30°F (-34°C); solvent treatments for deodorization; and bleaching to fade the color or further remove scent.
Those precious, non-oily compounds that give individual oils their nutritional and antioxidant values are stripped away during this refining process. The refined oil will still give a similar emollient to the end cosmetic product but sadly the healing benefits have been stripped away along with the scent and color.
Unrefined oils are more expensive than refined oils but they are far superior when it comes to the healing benefits you seek in your skincare regimen. This is why I use only the highest quality "unrefined" oils in my products, you deserve nothing but the best!
