Sunflower oil is a non-comedogenic oil rich in Vitamin E, and is considered a highly absorbent carrier oil that won't clog pores. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that can help protect skin from free radicals and from adverse effects of the sun, such as premature aging and wrinkles. Sunflower oil also contains Linoleic acid, which helps to maintain the skin’s natural barrier. It give skin the ability to retain moisture, and is also known for having anti-inflammatory properties (when used topically), making it quite beneficial for dry skin. Using a skincare product formulated with sunflower oil is a good way to obtain vitamin E’s benefits for skin because it's non-irritating (for most people), and can be used on all types of skin: dry, normal, oily, and acne-prone.
