A historical Roman import from the Middle East, apricot kernel oil is widely grown in warmer European climates.
Made using a cold-pressed extraction from the apricot stone, this clear, pale yellow oil has a virtually undetectable, gentle scent.
Its light feel absorbs into skin quicker than jojoba and argan, making it a great choice for various formulations.
USES OF APRICOT KERNEL OIL:
This versatile oil is well-suited for a range of skin and hair care applications, providing deep nourishment without a greasy feel. Its gentle nature is perfect for calming irritated or dry skin, while its quick absorption makes it an ideal base for facial serums, body oils, or even as a hair treatment to add softness and shine.
PRECAUTIONS:
Take care when using apricot kernel oil if you have a known nut allergy, as it is a seed-based oil. As with any new oil, a patch test is recommended before wider use to ensure no skin sensitivities exist.
