Product Information

Full details

This guide is for individuals seeking a pure, versatile, and ethically produced carrier oil. The key benefit is its suitability for skincare, massage, and aromatherapy due to its light texture and nourishing properties. A potential caveat is its scent, which is very subtle and may not be noticeable to everyone. Absolute Aromas Organic Apricot Kernel Oil is a 100% pure, cold-pressed, and unrefined oil, certified organic and vegan-friendly, presented in a convenient glass bottle for preservation.

FAQs

Is this oil suitable for very sensitive skin?

Yes, Apricot Kernel Oil is known for being gentle and is well-tolerated by most skin types, including sensitive and mature skin.

Can I use this oil on my face?

Absolutely. Its light texture makes it an excellent facial moisturizer or serum base. Apply a few drops to clean, damp skin.

How long does the oil last?

When stored correctly in a cool, dark place, the oil typically remains potent for 12-18 months after opening.

What is the difference between cold-pressed and refined oil?

Cold-pressed oil is extracted without heat, preserving more of its natural nutrients and therapeutic properties. Refined oils often undergo heating or chemical processes that can diminish these benefits.

Can I ingest this oil?

This product is intended for external use only. While pure, it is not processed or regulated as a food-grade product for ingestion.

Does it have a strong scent?

Organic Apricot Kernel Oil has a very mild, almost imperceptible nutty aroma. It is not a heavily scented oil.

What does 'carrier oil' mean?

A carrier oil is a vegetable oil derived from the fatty portion of a plant, such as the seeds, nuts, or kernels. It is used to dilute potent essential oils before they are applied to the skin.

Troubleshooting

Oil feels heavier than expected.

Ensure the bottle has not been exposed to excessive heat, which can slightly alter consistency. For a lighter application, use fewer drops.

Skin irritation occurs.

Although rare, discontinue use. Ensure you are not sensitive to apricot kernel oil. If blending with essential oils, verify the essential oil's suitability for your skin and that it is properly diluted.

Oil appears cloudy.

This can sometimes happen if stored at a very low temperature. Gently warm the bottle in your hands or a bowl of warm water. If the cloudiness persists and is accompanied by an off-smell, it may indicate spoilage; discontinue use.
