As one of the best all-rounder oils, Apricot Kernel Oil (Refined), also known as Apricot Kernel Oil or Apricot Kernel Carrier Oil, is highly nourishing, readily absorbed and well suited to all skin types (particularly dry, sensitive and mature skin). Often likened to Almond Sweet Oil, Apricot Kernel Carrier Oil has a lot to offer when it comes to skin care. Due to its versatile nature, this carrier oil is fantastic for diluting essential oils.

Apricot Kernel Carrier Oil is rich in essential fatty acids (oleic and linoleic). It also contains high levels of vitamins A and E, making it fantastic in after sun care products.
The Vitamin K content within this carrier oil has been seen to reduce the appearance of dark circles, particularly around the eyes.
Other Apricot Kernel Oil benefits are known to soothe inflamed, irritated, chapped and dry skin.
The anti-inflammatory properties further make it a great remedy for reducing signs of eczema and psoriasis, as it works to decrease redness and itchiness.
It is also commonly used in creams, lotions, ointments, butters and balms, as well as soaps, bath oils and massage oils.

Extracted from the kernels of the Prunus armeniaca botanical species, AWO’s 100% pure Apricot Kernel Carrier Oil is ethically sourced using the cold pressing and refining method.
