Carrot oil is great for the skin, hair and absolutely amazing for cooking. I use the first method of preparation for my hair and skin and the second method for cooking.
Carrot oil leaves my skin nourished and glowing but sadly has bleaching effect when used continously, so I mix it with other oils to get a balanced and healthy skin rather than bleached skin. Before use, make sure to conduct a patch test to avoid significant irritation
