Sesame oil is a plant oil with a naturally rich texture and a pale golden color. In Glow Rituals, it works best as a small add-on for hair lengths, scalp pre-wash blends or dry-looking body areas.
Why it is used in beauty rituals
- Adds slip to hair-end serums and pre-wash oils.
- Feels richer than jojoba, so a little goes a long way.
- Can be blended into body oils for a cushioned finish.
How to use it gently
- For hair ends, warm 1–2 drops between palms and smooth over the last few inches.
- For a scalp pre-wash, blend a few drops into jojoba oil and rinse out with shampoo.
- For body care, mix one part sesame oil with two parts lighter oil.
Who should be careful
Patch test first, especially if you are sensitive to seed or nut oils. Avoid using it on irritated skin or leaving a heavy layer on the scalp overnight.
