Aceso Oils & Herbs
Ancient Ayurveda ยท Modern Wellness
"At Aceso, we believe in oils the way nature intended โ cold pressed, unrefined, and full of life."
Walk into any supermarket and you'll find shelves lined with "100% pure" oils. But flip the bottle over โ chances are it was processed at high heat, stripped of its nutrients, and bleached for appearance. This is refined oil. And while it may look clear and odourless, your skin and hair are quietly paying the price.
At Aceso Oils & Herbs, we source and cold press every oil with one goal: to deliver nature's full nutritional intelligence straight to your skin, hair, and body โ without compromise. Here's the science and Ayurvedic wisdom behind why it matters.
What is cold pressing?
Cold pressing is an ancient extraction method that crushes seeds, nuts, or plants at low temperatures (below 40ยฐC) to extract oil without heat or chemicals. This preserves the oil's natural vitamins, fatty acids, antioxidants, and aroma โ everything your body actually needs.
Refined oils, on the other hand, are processed with high heat (often above 200ยฐC), chemical solvents like hexane, and bleaching agents. The result? A longer shelf life โ but a nutritionally hollow product that your skin and scalp can barely absorb.
This is exactly why Aceso uses only cold pressed extraction across our entire oil range โ from our Gurbandi Almond Oil to our Virgin Coconut Oil and Sesame Oil.

What Ayurveda says
Ayurvedic texts like the Charaka Samhita have recommended oil application โ known as Abhyanga โ for centuries. The key principle: only oils with their full natural essence (called Prabhav) can nourish the body's seven tissues (Dhatus). Heat-processed oils lose this essence entirely, making them ineffective for therapeutic use.
This ancient wisdom is the foundation of every Aceso product. Our tagline โ "Ancient Ayurveda, Modern Wellness" โ is not just a phrase. It's the philosophy behind how we source, press, and bottle each oil in our range.
Aceso Tip โ Shiro Abhyanga: Warm a small amount of Aceso Sesame Oil or Aceso Almond Oil in your palms and apply in circular motions on your scalp before bathing. This traditional Shiro Abhyanga ritual boosts circulation, calms Vata dosha, and supports stronger, shinier hair over time.

How to store your Aceso oils
Because Aceso oils are cold pressed and free from preservatives, they retain maximum potency but need a little care. Store them in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. All Aceso oils come in glass bottles to protect the oil's integrity โ use within 6โ12 months of opening for best results.
Purity test: Genuine Aceso Sesame Oil will have a naturally nutty aroma and a golden-amber hue. If your oil is colourless and odourless, it has been refined โ regardless of what the label claims.
The Aceso promise
Your skin absorbs up to 60% of what you apply on it. At Aceso Oils & Herbs, every oil we bottle goes through artisanal cold pressing, small-batch production, and traceable sourcing โ so you always know exactly what you're putting on your body.
We are not just selling oils. Aceso is on a mission to create a "Future For Health" โ one pure, cold pressed drop at a time.
