Jasmine flower oil is produced through a process called solvent extraction. Due to the delicate nature of jasmine flowers, steam distillation is not effective in capturing their full fragrance. In solvent extraction, the jasmine flowers are immersed in a solvent, such as hexane, which absorbs the oil. This mixture is then filtered to remove the plant matter, and the solvent is carefully evaporated, leaving behind a thick, waxy substance known as jasmine concrete. To obtain the pure oil, the jasmine concrete is further processed through alcohol extraction, resulting in jasmine absolute, a highly concentrated and precious oil. Its potent antioxidant properties help combat free radical damage, a primary cause of premature aging and wrinkles. The oil's regenerative qualities may help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Additionally, jasmine flower oil is believed to have a balancing effect on the skin, helping to regulate sebum production and soothe both dry and oily skin conditions. Its calming and uplifting fragrance can also contribute to a sense of well-being, potentially reducing stress-related skin issues.
