Product Description

Heal and hydrate your skin with this luxuriously smooth Almond Carrier Oil. Also known as Sweet Almond Carrier Oil, it’s perfect for diluting essential oils for topical use in skincare, DIY beauty, haircare, and more.

When used as a carrier oil, it helps your skin absorb the therapeutic benefits of other essential oils while nourishing your epidermal layer with deeply moisturizing omega fatty acids, zinc, Vitamin E, and Vitamin A – also known as retinol, a potent acid that naturally reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

The natural aroma of this Almond Oil is very gentle, slightly sweet, and faintly nutty, and won’t overpower other scents when using essential oils for natural perfumes or colognes. Enjoy this carrier oil on its own as a natural makeup remover, moisturizer, exfoliant, and more.

Try adding 1-3 drops of an essential oil for skincare and use for a soothing, healing facial massage, or as a lubricant for gua sha or jade rolling. You can also add it to your existing personal care products to enhance moisturizing, reduce inflammation, and balance your skin.

Dilution

One of the most popular uses of Sweet Almond Oil, also known as Almond Oil, is diluting essential oils for topical use in skincare, natural beauty, haircare, wound care, and more.

To avoid potential irritation or sensitivity, pure essential oils need to be diluted before you can apply them to your skin. Diluting with carrier oils also prevents the oils from evaporating too quickly and losing their therapeutic benefits due to early oxidation. 

By using essential almond oil to dilute other essential oils and blends, you can absorb the full plant compounds in the essential oils without skin irritation or inflammation. Diluting with carrier oils like carrier oil almond also makes oils safer to use on children and certain pets

Almond Carrier Oil also helps you get more applications from every bottle of essential oil. When it comes to essential oils, remember that a little goes a long way! Using undiluted, pure essential oils or blends does not mean you’ll receive more benefits or see faster results. Always dilute with carrier oils, like sweet almond carrier oil, to ensure your safety.
