Unrefined Sweet Almond Oil Esent

Sweet almond oil is extracted from nutritious and extremely beneficial nuts. Often, the extracted oil is purified, but unrefined almond oil has a number of advantages, not least because it retains all the biologically active components of almond kernels. One inconvenience of unrefined organic oils is that they can leave a greasy sheen on the skin, but almond oil is almost completely absorbed despite its high oiliness. It is an excellent nourishing agent, often serving as the base for cosmetic formulations for dry, dehydrated, aging, and depleted skin, and is very beneficial for the skin of the lips and other delicate areas requiring enhanced nourishment. Sweet almond oil is an excellent base for preparing cosmetic and aromatic blends. It is used in massage mixes, in "warm" masks for hands and problem skin areas. Almond oil is a wonderful cosmetic component for aging skin, providing both powerful nourishment and increased skin elasticity, as well as antioxidant therapy. Sweet almond oil also has calming properties, making its application on irritated, itchy, flaky skin simply magical.
