Carrot Seed essential oil is rich in beta carotene and Vitamins B, C, D and E. It is mainly obtained from wild carrots, usually found in Europe. The oil is extracted from the plant's seeds and should not be confused with Carrot Oil (which is obtained by infusing carrot material into a base oil).

The name carrot is derived from the Greek 'carotos'. It has been used since ancient times for its carminative properties and to help support the liver and cleanse the body. It has also been used to relieve dry skin conditions and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

In modern aromatherapy Carrot Seed essential oil is very much a female-oriented oil and is appreciated for its soothing effect on the female cycle and its ability to enhance the condition and appearance of the skin.
