Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sweet Almond oil for hair?
  • Sweet Almond oil is touted for its hydration benefits for the scalp to add moisture with dry scalp conditions such as dandruff. You can also use it directly on hair strands by rubbing a few drops on the palms of your hands and brushing your fingers through your hair, especially paying attention to the ends. Brush it in further with a wooden comb to add shine and smooth out frizzy hair.
Is Sweet Almond oil good for skin?
  • A gentle option for kids and those with sensitive skin, Sweet Almond oil is often used in massage oil as well as with aromatic preparations with essential oils. Its component list includes oleic acid, linoleic acid and a smaller portion of palmitic and stearic acids. These constituents are often used in body care applications to improve skin tone for dry, chapped and irritated skin conditions to reduce redness and inflammation. It has a comedogenic rating of 2 out of 5 and most likely will not clog pores. For those with skin sensitivity, we recommend performing a skin patch test on the inner arm and testing for issues of redness, itchiness or irritation.
What is Sweet Almond oil?
  • Sweet Almond oil is an unrefined, non-volatile oil that is cold pressed from the seeds or nuts of the Prunus dulcis tree that originates from Southwest Asia and the Middle East. It has many health benefits for use in skin care for dry skin, stretch marks and to improve skin tone. It is employed often for use in soap making and in hair care. It contains vitamin E as well as numerous essential fatty acids such as oleic acid. Try blending it with other carrier oils such as Fractionated Coconut oil.
Is Sweet Almond oil edible?
  • Sweet Almond oil is absolutely safe to ingest. It is full of monounsaturated fatty acids that help to improve the good levels of cholesterol (HDL) while at the same time lowering bad cholesterol (LDL). This is in comparison with Bitter Almond oil which is not recommended for cooking or internal use. For those with tree nut allergies, it is not advised to ingest since it may trigger an allergic reaction.
What does Sweet Almond oil smell like?
  • Sweet Almond has a barely imperceptible odor that is faintly sweet, soft and nutty. It has a pale yellow to a golden hue and a light to medium viscosity. Its appearance on the skin dissipates quickly and absorbs well, leaving only a mildly oily feel on the skin and is an excellent oil to use as a carrier for essential oil preparations or as a massage oil for its numerous skin benefits.

Great for under the eyes

I am amazed at how nice this carrier oil is on my skin! I bought this to implement into my skincare routine, specifically under my eyes. It is much more affordable than a traditional eye cream, and I like the results better too. My only issue is my waterproof mascara coming off due the excess oil left behind, so I only use it at night when I’m removing my make up anyway.

Mild Oil for Relief on Skin Near the Eyes

As I have oily skin to begin with, any carrier oil I use in the vicinity of my eyes eventually causes oil overload to reach my eyes. Given the light nature and mild smell of Sweet Almond, and the reputation of almond oil for soothing skin near the eyes, I decide to give it a try. After washing my face, I apply a thin film to areas with delicate skin. After 5 minutes, I then use a tissue to blot out any extra oil on the skin surface. And voila - the skin is soft with a good tone and no eye irritation.

IMPRESSIVE!

I was FLOORED when this came in the mail -- IT'S IN A GLASS BOTTLE! I've never gotten a carrier oil in glass before -- I didn't even know it was a thing. This was my first carrier oil purchase from EG, but it definitely won't be my last!!!

I'm using this to make my own stretch mark belly butter.
