This product is a basic \"sweet almond oil\" extracted from organic almond seeds cultivated in Italy's Mediterranean climate. With a fatty acid composition primarily of oleic acid and linoleic acid, it is known as a carrier oil that is readily absorbed by the skin and boasts excellent moisturizing properties. With a good balance of a light feel and moisturizing properties, it is a versatile oil that can be used for everything from face and body care to hair care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use as a Carrier Oil\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEssential oils are highly concentrated active ingredients from plants. They cannot be used directly on the skin and should always be diluted with a carrier oil before use. Generally, the guideline is about 1-2 drops of essential oil (approximately 1% or less) per 10mL of carrier oil. Combine it with your favorite essential oils such as \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kosmicalchemy.com\/products\/lavender-maillette-eo\"\u003eLavender Maillette\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kosmicalchemy.com\/products\/rose-geranium-eo\"\u003eRose Geranium\u003c\/a\u003e, or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kosmicalchemy.com\/products\/palo-santo-eo\"\u003ePalo Santo\u003c\/a\u003e to create your own original skincare or massage oil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use Alone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlmond oil can also be used on its own without adding essential oils.
