Sweet Almond Oil
Back to Carrier OilsSweet Almond Oil (prunus amygdalus var dulcis) is a readily absorbed, soothing oil well tolerated by most skin types.
Sweet almond oil is one of the most popular of all the base oils, and is virtually odourless. It is a fairly light oil that is readily absorbed by the skin. It has a soothing effect and is well tolerated by most skin types. Sweet almond oil is an excellent emollient and is known for its ability to soften the skin. It makes a good general-purpose massage base. Rich in nutrients, it contains vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and a small amount of vitamin E.
How to use:
Ideal for a skin conditioning facial or body massage, either as it is or tailored using your favourite essential oils, or other base oils. Shake the bottle before use and apply a small amount of oil to one palm. Rub your hands together to warm the oil then massage into your skin, taking care to avoid the eye area.
