Prunus armeniaca

Apricot Kernel Oil is cold-pressed from the kernels of the apricot fruit. It possesses a light, subtly sweet, nutty aroma and a luxuriously silky texture. Apricot Kernel Oil is prized in aromatherapy and skincare for its excellent absorption, gentle nature, and nourishing properties, making it particularly suitable for facial applications.

Apricot Kernel Oil can be used as a carrier oil for diluting essential oils for topical application, and it absorbs beautifully into the skin leaving a soft, non-greasy finish. It is valued for its moisturizing and revitalizing properties, making it ideal for mature, sensitive, dry, and inflamed skin. Rich in vitamins A and E, as well as essential fatty acids, Apricot Kernel Oil helps promote skin suppleness and radiance. Its light texture makes it especially popular for facial serums, eye treatments, and delicate skin areas.

As a skincare ingredient, Apricot Kernel Oil is gentle and restorative, helping to soothe irritation, improve skin tone and texture, and support a healthy, youthful-looking complexion.
