Apricot Kernel Oil for Skin, Face & Hair - Cold Pressed, 2 fl oz

The lighter-feeling cousin of sweet almond oil.

If most oils feel too heavy on your face, try apricot kernel oil. It spreads easily, sinks in without a greasy film, and leaves skin soft and smooth. That easy, silky slip is also why massage therapists and DIY makers reach for it.

Our Apricot Kernel Oil is cold pressed from the seed inside the apricot pit and left virgin and unrefined. It has one ingredient and nothing added, and comes in a 2 oz amber glass bottle with a dropper.

How to use it

• Face: press 2 to 3 drops into damp skin after cleansing, morning or night. It layers easily under moisturizer.
• Hair: massage into the scalp before you shampoo, or smooth a drop or two over dry ends to tame frizz and add shine.
• Massage: warm a few drops between your palms for a silky, easy glide.
• Cuticles & heels: rub into dry, rough spots.
• DIY: a light carrier for essential oil blends, face serums, body butters, lip balms and soap.

What to expect

• Color runs from light yellow to golden, and the scent from barely there to mildly nutty, depending on the harvest. That's normal for an unrefined oil.
• Naturally rich in oleic and linoleic fatty acids.

Good to know

• Contains tree nuts (apricot kernel). Not for anyone with a tree nut allergy.
• For external use only. Patch test on your inner arm before first use. Keep out of eyes.
• Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place.
