Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is well-loved by Wild As The Wind for it’s skin nourishing benefits. It is a vitally important ingredient in the extremely popular, calming, soothing and rejuvenating FACIAL OIL No. 8.
*Please note: Wild as The Wind also carry a non-organic alternative :: Ethically Sourced Carrot Seed Essential Oil.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil supports us very well from an energetic perspective, as well as a physical one. It is excellent for clearing out energetic and physical detritus / waste, leading to greater levels of clarity both mentally and physically.
It is also digestively cleansing and deeply antioxidant for our skin.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil For Skincare
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is known for its ability to improve the appearance of mature skin. It is very smoothing and enlivening.
It is also excellent for dealing with environmental skin damage, whilst also improving skin tone and elasticity. But, its antioxidant concentrations are what make Organic Carrot Seed Essential oil so helpful for eliciting the appearance of youthful looking skin. It’s these antioxidant properties which help to keep skin looking clear and glowing.
The high Carotol content of Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is what chiefly bestows this aromatherapy oil with such broadly beneficial properties for dermal applications.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil Health Benefits
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil possesses many health benefits. It is profoundly enlivening for facial and bodily skin, but many of the health benefits of this potent aromatherapy oil influence us at a systemic level.
For example, Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is thought to provide many health benefits for our major detox organ: our liver. Because we live in an increasingly toxic world, where air, soil and sea pollution are at extremely high levels, the more we can do to support our liver the better.
It is our liver which has to eliminate all of these toxins out of the body, as well as breaking down fats and processing spent hormones, etc.
An overworked and malfunctioning liver may lead to hormone imbalance, anxiety and depression and dermal issues. Skin issues can include outbreaks of acne and eczema, etc.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil Health Benefits Include :: Anti-fungal + anti-inflammatory + antioxidant + carminative + cicatrisant (wound healing) + diuretic + vermifuge (antihelminthic, or expels worms)
For more information, please consult the Glossary Of Terms.
According to Researchgate, in their research paper entitled :: Nutritional and Health Benefits of Carrots & Their Seed Extracts, written by João Silva Dias, Technical University of Lisbon:
Carrot is a root vegetable with carotenoids, flavonoids, polyacetylenes, vitamins, and minerals, all of which possess numerous nutritional and health benefits. Besides lending truth to the old adage that carrots are good for eyes, carotenoids, polyphenols and vitamins present in carrot act as antioxidants, anticarcinogens, and immunoenhancers. Anti-diabetic, cholesterol and cardiovascular disease lowering, anti-hypertensive, hepatoprotective, renoprotective, and wound healing benefits of carrot have also been reported. The cardio- and hepatoprotective, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic effects of carrot seed extracts are also noteworthy. All are discussed in this review article.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is an “extract” of carrot seeds. Because seeds germinate into new plants, they contain very dense amounts of the nutrients needed for the success of the plant. It is these nutrients which are so healing for us also.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil Energetic Healing
Organic Carrot Seed Aromatherapy Oil is not the most favourable smelling essential oil, but from an energetic perspective it’s largely got us covered. It is excellent for clearing stagnant abdominal energy as well as providing energetic support to our Pineal Gland, or third eye.
The benefits of Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil to our third eye are one of the key reasons FACIAL OIL No. 8 helps users to feel more clear minded and inspired! A clear third eye allows us to see and feel more clear from a spiritual perspective, which in turn, allows us to feel more inspired and intuitive. All the best artists tell us they are just a vessel for Divine inspiration… so if you want to be a receptive vessel, it’s important to keep a clear third eye.
Sadly, our third eye / Pineal Gland can become calcified. Read Detoxing Fluoride With Tamarind to find out how to further enhance the clarity of your Pineal Gland.
As already mentioned, Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is very supportive of Liver health. The Liver is where our anger tends to go at a metaphysical level. So, unexpressed anger and festering chronic anger tends to hang out in our Livers, making them sluggish and less effective. Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is a great antidote.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is a great Kidney cleanser as well as Liver cleanser. This is why it acts as a diuretic.
Dilute Carrot Seed Essential Oil with Organic Palmarosa Essential Oil in a good carrier oil, like Organic Sweet Almond Oil or Raspberry Seed Oil, to make a great abdominal and kidney massage oil.
It is important to massage your Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil and Palmarosa Essential Oil massage oil blend into your kidneys (the area above your hips on your back) as well as all over your abdomen.

Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil Traditional Uses
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil has been traditionally used to support healthy elimination. Topically applying an Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil based massage oil to the abdomen is ideal for this. Plus, it will also help to eliminate worms! Perhaps consider accompanying this with Nigella Sativa Oil & Oregano Essential Oil to successfully treat parasites.
Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil has also been an age-old treatment for gout.
All of these applications are derived from the excellent stimulant qualities of Carrot Seed Essential Oil.
However, Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil is also carminative, which means it helps eliminate gastric discomfort and gas. This has led to Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil being used for many traditional uses for digestive issues.

Cautions & Contraindications
According to Robert Tisserand & Rodney Young, Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil may interfere with embryonic and foetal gestation.
Do not use during pregnancy & whilst breastfeeding.
*Some source material states that Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil may be slightly phototoxic when distilled from wild carrots. However, this is refuted in other respectable, well recognised texts. In any case, it is always wise to perform a skin sensitivity test, also known as a skin patch test, so it is entirely feasible to test for phototoxicity in the same way, but separately from your skin sensitivity test, of course.
This Organic Carrot Seed Essential Oil used in FACIAL OIL No. 8 and the Wild As The Wind Ethically Sourced Carrot Seed Essential Oil are not phototoxic in our experience.
FACIAL OIL No. 8 has been tested by thousands of women with no adverse effects reported. Many people use FACIAL OIL No. 8 during the summer months. In fact, Wild as the Wind advocate for using FACIAL OIL No. 8 during the summer months because it is an exceptionally light oil. The skincare industry refers to blended oils like FACIAL OIL No. 8 as ‘dry’ oils, as they are so light and easily absorbed.
