Source
We purchase apricot stones from a local producer of dried apricots. Normally the stones would be thrown away, but we give them a second life in the production of apricot oil. We break the stones by hand to release the nutritious apricot kernels hide within. We place the kernels in a cold-press machine which exerts enough force on them to produce a light oil while preserving the highest quantity of phytonutrients present in the apricot kernels.
Skin Benefits:
Apricot oil is phenomenal for sensitive, dry, and mature skin types. The high content of omega-9 acid present in apricot oil makes it an extremely nourishing moisturizer, which is excellent for dry skin but should be avoided by those with oily skin types. A touch of omega-6 is also present in the oil, which soothes skin that is prone to redness and sensitivity. Vitamin E and a collection of phytosterols provide skin rejuvenation and antioxidant protection, to prevent premature ageing.
