Organic Apricot Kernel Oil

Prunus Armeniaca Kernel Oil

100% Pure • Organic • Cold Pressed • Turkey

Pressed from the kernels hidden inside the apricot stone, our Organic Apricot Kernel Oil is a beautifully light and silky botanical oil.

Cold pressed to preserve its naturally characteristic qualities, this delicate oil has a wonderfully smooth feel and is a versatile ingredient for facial, body, hair and nail care formulations.

Light. Silky. Naturally beautiful.

What makes Apricot Kernel Oil special?

Apricot Kernel Oil is naturally rich in fatty acids, particularly oleic and linoleic acids, and is loved in cosmetic formulations for its light, soft and emollient character.

Compared with richer botanical oils, Apricot Kernel Oil has a beautifully silky skin feel, making it particularly useful when you want nourishment without creating an overly heavy formulation.

Its versatility makes it a lovely choice for everything from facial oil blends and serums to body oils, balms, creams, lotions and hair care formulations.

Can Apricot Kernel Oil be used on its own?

Yes. Apricot Kernel Oil is widely used both on its own and as an ingredient in cosmetic formulations.

Its light texture also makes it easy to blend with other botanical oils and butters, allowing it to form the base of simple oil blends or more complex cosmetic formulations.

Beyond Organic Skincare supplies this product as a cosmetic ingredient for use in cosmetic formulations.

Did you know?

The apricot's velvety golden fruit isn't the only part of the plant that is treasured.

Hidden inside its hard stone is a kernel from which Apricot Kernel Oil can be obtained — transforming a small part of the fruit into a beautifully versatile botanical ingredient.

Our Apricot Kernel Oil is cold pressed, a mechanical extraction method that avoids the high temperatures associated with conventional refining.
