Sweet Almond Oil
Sweet Almond Oil
Sweet Almond Oil
Sweet Almond Oil is one of the most popular and versatile carrier oils, valued for its luxurious texture and superior glide — making it a favourite choice for general massage and deep tissue work. It gives therapists good control while offering a soothing, nourishing feel on the skin.
Naturally rich in essential fatty acids and containing vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and E, Sweet Almond Oil is well suited to dry, irritated or itchy skin. Its light, faintly nutty aroma and gentle emollient properties may help soften, soothe and recondition the skin. It also naturally contains minerals that support skin hydration.
This oil is slow to absorb, giving therapists time to perform a thorough massage while helping even distribution of the oil and any added essential oils. It is suitable for all skin types.
Apply directly to skin as a moisturiser or massage oil. For formulations, blend at 10–100% depending on application. Test small batches to perfect your recipe.
Botanical Name: Prunus dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil.
Safety information: generally well tolerated on all skin types; individual sensitivity is uncommon but possible. Almond is a tree nut and a recognised food allergen — see the allergen note below. A patch test is recommended before first use — see the Safety Data Sheet and Ingredient & Allergen Statement in the Product Documents section below for full detail.
