What it does

Sweet almond oil is pressed from almond kernels and is rich in oleic acid. It softens skin, spreads easily and is a classic base for massage oils, body lotions and baby products. CosIng lists it as skin conditioning.

It is plant-derived and affects none of the six checks. It is a carrier oil, not an essential oil, so it is not fragrance.
