Sweet almond oil
1.**0% pure and natural
2. Base Oil/ Carrier oils
Sweet almond oil is obtained from the dried kernels of the almond
tree and it is an excellent emollient (softening and soothing to
the skin) and also helps the skin to balance its loss and
absorption of moisture.
It is further a great moisturizer suitable for all skin types,
helps relieve irritation, inflammation and itching, and is greatly
lubricating and because it is not an overly fast penetrating oil,
it is a good massage medium to use to help spread the oil and
essential oil mixture, while still allowing you time to do a good
massage before it is absorbed by the skin.
Applications
This great vegetable oil is one of the most used carrier oils in
aromatherapy massage, and this is understandable since it has a
fine texture, is easily absorbed, and helps to leave the skin soft
and satiny smooth yet it is non-greasy and easily absorbed.
Not only does almond oil help protect the surface of the skin, but
has great value to act as an emollient, skin soother and softener
while conditioning the skin and promoting a clear young looking
complexion, also helps to relieve muscular aches and pains.
It has a rich concentration of oleic and linoleic essential fatty
acids, and although mostly used on its own as a massage carrier
oil, it also works well by diluting with *0% wheatgerm oil to help
give it a longer shelf life.
Sweet almond oil is one of the most popular carrier oils, since it
is non-greasy, spreads easily and also is great for nourishing the
skin.
