Almond Oil (Sweet) Information

Almond Oil (Sweet) (Prunus amygdalus var. dulcis)is a great vegetable oil and is one of the most used carrier oils in aromatherapy massage.It has a fine texture, helps to leave the skin soft and satiny smooth, while being non-greasy and easily absorbed.

Almond Oil is a favorite for massage in Aromatherapy. This is understandable, since it has a fine texture, is easily absorbed and helps to leave the skin soft and satiny smooth. What’s also great is that it doesn’t leave a greasy feeling on the skin. It helps the skin to balance its loss and absorption of moisture.

This oil is obtained from the dried kernels of the almond tree.

Almond Oil is suitable for all skin types, helps relieve irritation, inflammation and itching. It does not absorb very quickly into the skin, making it a good massage medium and carrier for essential oils when performing an aromatherapy massage.

Sweet Almond oil is often used during a manicure and pedicure, as it softens and moisturizes the skin on the hands and feet, also softening the cuticles. We make an excellent Nail and Cuticle Oil Blend that contains almond oil together with other essential oils, that will vastly improve the effects of this treatment and will also improve the health of the nails.

It has a rich concentration of oleic and linoleic essential fatty acids. Dilute 10% wheatgerm oil into your Almond Oil (Sweet) to give it a longer shelf life.
