Sweet Almond Oil

SWEET ALMOND OIL is high in mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids, minerals and glycosides. Fatty acids are necessary along with glycerol for the cell to function normally. SWEET ALMOND OIL ORGANIC also contains vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 with small amounts of Vitamin E and D. Due to the presence of Vitamin E the oil has antioxidant capability. Antioxidants protect vital cell structures by neutralizing free radicals. Topical vitamin E has shown to have a wide variety of skin benefits. Many studies have shown that it can help decrease the effects of psoriasis, erythema, and may help in reducing the risk of skin cancer. Vitamin E also helps in the reduction of scaring from wounds and on the appearance of stretch marks on the skin.

SWEET ALMOND OIL ORGANIC contains up to 30% of Linoleic Acid, an Omega 6 essential fatty acid. Studies have indicated that it is this high Linoleic Acid content that contributes to reduce the loss of water from the outer most layer of the skin (TEWL, Trans-Epidermal Water Loss), resulting in better moisture retention, which is the key to maintain a healthy skin.
