UNREFINED SWEET ALMOND OIL

Effects / Benefits

Rich in tocopherols, particularly vitamin E – the “youth vitamin.” It rejuvenates the skin, hydrates, acts as an antioxidant, and neutralizes free radicals.

Almond oil also contains a wealth of minerals and vitamins such as A, D, and B vitamins, as well as squalane and phytosterols, which nourish, hydrate, and soften the skin.
