Usage

Pure Sunflower Oil is clear to pale gold in color. In cosmetics, Sunflower Oil can be used as carrier oil. People also use it to condition their skin, since Sunflower Oil moisturizes without clogging pores, and the neutral scent makes it ideal for skin care. Cooks use Sunflower Oil for frying, although it can also be used in dressings and other recipes which call for oil. The neutral flavor and scent make Sunflower Oil acceptable for use in baking, as well.
