We all know the fruit Apricots for their soft orange exterior and their wonderfully sweet taste full of antioxidants and vitamins. How many of us know the benefits of Apricot Kernel Oil. Here at Verdant Alchemy this oil is one of our most treasured ingredients and is used in a wide array of products. While we all know the fruit, many of us don’t know much about the oil it produces, so let us teach you about its many benefits.

The apricot tree originated in Western Asia and China, but is now mainly grown in the Mediterranean, South Africa, Australia, and the United States. Apricot Kernel Oil is pressed from the kernels or the pits of the apricot fruit. Apricot Kernel Oil contains components of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Omega 3, 6, and 9.

 

There are many benefits of using Apricot Kernel Oil on the skin. It can be used for anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Vitamin A will percolate into the skin, moisturizing and rejuvenating the skin and hair. The Vitamin E in the oils helps boost the skin's ability to retain elasticity, giving you a more radiant complexion. The omega 6 and three will strengthen your skin and soften the skin making your body smooth to the touch. It cleanses pores while preventing blackheads and stimulating skin regeneration, and it can even protect the skin from UV radiation.
