Sweet Almond Oil – A Gentle, Nutrient-Rich Carrier Oil for Balanced, Resilient Skin and Hair

Sweet Almond Oil is a time-honoured carrier oil prized for its exceptional skin compatibility, nutrient density, and versatility across skincare, haircare, and wellness formulations. Cold-pressed from the dried kernels of the almond tree, this golden oil delivers a naturally balanced profile of oleic acid, linoleic acid, vitamin E, and antioxidants, making it especially well suited for dry, sensitive, and compromised skin.

Lightweight yet nourishing, Sweet Almond Oil provides lasting moisture without heaviness, supporting barrier repair while maintaining a soft, satin finish on the skin. Its mild nature and low irritation profile have made it a staple in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese practices, as well as a modern favourite for baby care, massage blends, and everyday formulations designed for delicate skin types.

In hair and scalp care, Sweet Almond Oil helps restore shine, reduce dryness, and improve manageability, while its soothing properties calm flaky or irritated scalps. Its balanced fatty acid composition allows it to perform beautifully both as a standalone oil and as a functional base for active-rich formulations.

    The sweet almond oil smelt just like olive oil. It is nothing like the sweet almond oil I have used prior to this one. I’m afraid to open the second bottle. I feel scammed. I’m not happy with the feel and smell of the so-called sweet almond oil I purchased from skinfoodie. Unfortunately I live in Ibadan and not able to dispatch it back to verify my disappointment in the product
