Sesame is a plant that has been known, cultivated, and used for over 3000 years.
According to excavations and writings on papyrus, it is reported that it was initially cultivated and used by the Sumerians and Assyrians. Wealthy Assyrians used sesame oil as an ointment and medicine.
2000 years ago, this plant began to be cultivated and used by the Chinese, Vietnamese, and Japanese.
Protective of the central nervous system (CNS), this oil, known for its "heavy" texture, is the ideal oil for long Ayurvedic massages. The significant presence of unsaponifiables in sesame oil makes it a therapeutic oil that goes beyond simple cosmetic care.
Being highly penetrative, it regenerates and softens the skin, addressing issues like flakiness. It also has antioxidant properties.
