Most cold pressed sesame oils are roasted anyway. Sesame oil is produced for cooking and therefore the sesame seeds are roasted prior to pressing to intensify the flavour of the seeds. Any sesame oil that smells of sesame is a roasted oil. An unroasted oil smells similar to hemp seed oil, grassy and bland it is also near colourless.
Both roasted and unroasted work well on the skin though. Roasting of the seeds occurs at a temperture below the smoke poimt of the oil which is very high.
If you are looking for a cheap cleanser for the skin, pick up a jar of tahini from the supermarket. Its ground unroasted sesame seeds, moisturising and exfoliating too as it contains the hulls. Mix a bit of honey in it, scrub and steam off.
Roasted sesame oil is excellent for spider veins, I massage it into my legs after dry brushing and it significantly reduces its appearance. I had large patches of these on my shins and they are almost gone now, in about 4 weeks. |
