What is Almond Oil?

Sweet Almond oil is the result of cold pressing Almond seeds, cold pressing allows the oil to retain its natural properties and is the preferred method of extraction.

Almond oil is mainly made up of fatty acids such as Linoleic Acid, Palmitic Acid and Oleic Acid. Oleic acids are said to be helpful in cutting down on dandruff and limiting split ends. As well as helping to limit wrinkles and fine lines in the face.
