Description: Apricot kernel organic oil is a clear, light-yellow oil extracted from the kernels of apricots (Prunus armeniaca). It is a non-comedogenic oil, which means it does not clog pores. It is also hypoallergenic, making it a good choice for people with sensitive skin.

Good for all skin types, especially for sensitive, inflamed and dry skin.

Beneficial properties of regular Apricot Kernel oil are:

  • Moisturizes skin: Apricot kernel oil is a good moisturizer for all skin types, including dry, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. It is rich in fatty acids, which help to keep the skin hydrated.
  • Reduces inflammation: Apricot kernel oil has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to reduce redness, swelling, and irritation. It is often used to treat eczema, psoriasis, and other skin conditions.
  • Protects skin from damage: Apricot kernel oil contains vitamin E, which is an antioxidant that can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage cells and contribute to aging and the development of chronic diseases.
  • Soothes skin: Apricot kernel oil can help to soothe and soften the skin. It is often used to treat rough, dry skin.
  • Nourishes hair: Apricot kernel oil can help to condition and nourish the hair. It can also help to reduce frizz and split ends.

Apricot Kernel oil can be used for:

  • Skin care: Apricot kernel organic oil can be used as a moisturizer, makeup remover, and massage oil. It can also be used to treat dry skin, eczema, and psoriasis.
  • Hair care: Apricot kernel organic oil can be used to condition and nourish the hair. It can also help to reduce frizz and split ends.
  • Cooking: Apricot kernel organic oil can be used for cooking, but it is not as heat stable as some other oils. It is best used for low-heat cooking methods, such as stir-frying or baking.
  • Other uses: Apricot kernel organic oil can also be used as a carrier oil for essential oils, or as a natural insect repellent.

Here are some additional tips for using Apricot Kernel oil:

  • Always do a patch test before using apricot kernel oil on a large area of skin. This is especially important if you have sensitive skin. Apply a small amount of the oil to a small area of your skin and wait 24 hours. If you experience any redness, itching, or irritation, do not use the oil.
  • Apricot kernel oil is a light oil, so it is best for use on dry skin. If you have oily skin, you may want to mix it with another oil, such as jojoba oil.
  • Apricot kernel oil can be used for both skin and hair care. When using it for skin care, apply it to the skin after cleansing and before applying makeup. When using it for hair care, apply it to the hair before shampooing.
  • Apricot kernel oil can be used as a carrier oil for essential oils. This means that you can mix it with essential oils to dilute them and make them less potent.
  • Store apricot kernel oil in a cool, dark place. This will help to preserve its quality.
