Prunus Armeniaca is a biolehem of high cosmetic utility due to its high content of essential unsaturated fatty acids (EFA) in the form of oleic acid and linoleic acid and the presence of an unsaponifiable fraction in the form of tocopherols (vitamin E) and phytosterols. It is an excellent carrier of the liposoluble active substances (e.g. Q10) contained in cosmetic preparations. The oil is suitable for all skin types with particular emphasis on treating mature, sensitive, dry, irritable and sensitive skin. It is also recommended for the care of children’s skin.
Cold pressed apricot kernel oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids. A deficiency of fatty acids in the skin is manifested by weakening of the skin’s protective barrier, slowed healing processes, dry skin, wrinkling and flabby skin, dermatosis, flaking, inflammation, increased susceptibility to blackheads and eczema and frequent irritation and redness. Due to its high oleic acid content, apricot kernel oil is one of the light oils that are quickly absorbed into the skin without leaving a feeling of greasiness and viscosity.
