High Quality 99% Apricot Oil CAS:72869-69-3for Skin Care

Apricot Oil is a natural plant oil extracted from the seeds of the Prunus apricot tree (Rosaceae) through processes such as cold pressing and solvent extraction (industrial grade). It comes in two varieties: sweet almond oil and bitter almond oil. (Sweet almond oil is primarily used commercially, while bitter almond oil requires rigorous refining due to trace toxic components.) Its mild texture and rich nutrition offer multiple benefits, including skincare, haircare, and edible benefits. It is widely used in daily chemical products, food, and aromatherapy, making it a popular natural oil offering both value and practicality.

Apricot Oil is based on natural fatty acids, supplemented with a variety of vitamins and minerals for a balanced nutritional profile. Specifically, it includes:
Fatty acids (main ingredient)
Unsaturated fatty acids: These are highly concentrated, with oleic acid (monounsaturated fatty acid) and linoleic acid (polyunsaturated fatty acid) being the core components. The former nourishes the skin and maintains oil balance, while the latter helps repair the skin barrier and improve dryness.
Saturated fatty acids: Contains small amounts of palmitic acid and stearic acid, which enhance oil stability and improve product moisturization and spreadability.
Vitamins and Minerals: Rich in vitamins A, E, and B vitamins. Vitamin A improves skin roughness and promotes cell metabolism; vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that reduces free radical damage; and B vitamins help maintain healthy skin and hair.
Minerals: Contains trace elements such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc, providing essential nutritional support for the skin and body.
Other supporting ingredients: Contains small amounts of phytosterols, which have anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, helping to relieve skin sensitivity and discomfort while strengthening the skin barrier function.

• Gentle and safe, with a wide range of compatibility: Derived from natural plant seeds, it's mild, non-irritating, and extremely hypoallergenic. It's suitable not only for healthy skin but also for sensitive, dry, and baby skin types. It's safe for both internal and external use (sweet almond oil meets food safety standards).
  Nutrient-dense, multifunctional synergy
• Highly nourishing skincare: Unsaturated fatty acids and vitamins work synergistically to deeply moisturize the skin and repair damaged skin barrier. Antioxidants slow aging and improve dullness, dry lines, and other issues.
• Remarkable haircare and repairing benefits: It penetrates deep into hair to replenish nutrients and lock in moisture, effectively improving dryness, split ends, and frizz, while enhancing shine and smoothness.
• Skin-friendly and easily absorbed: Its light, delicate texture makes it easier for skin and hair to absorb than other heavier oils, leaving no sticky residue and providing a superior user experience.
• Stable raw materials and mature technology: Apricot trees are widely cultivated (distributed in temperate regions around the world, with my country being one of the main production areas), with sufficient raw material supply and controllable quality; the cold-pressed virgin pressing process can retain its natural nutrients to the greatest extent, avoid chemical residues, and meet the needs of high-end daily chemical and food industries.

   Basic Skincare: It is added as a core base oil to products such as creams, lotions, serums, hand creams, and body lotions. It provides moisturizing and repairing benefits, making it particularly suitable for use during the dry seasons of autumn and winter.

   Essential Oil Blending: It can be used as a base oil in aromatherapy with single essential oils such as lavender and rose to reduce the irritation of high-concentration essential oils while promoting absorption. It is suitable for full-body massage.

3. Food Industry
   Culinary Applications: Sweet almond oil has a moderate smoke point and can be used in cold dishes and low-temperature cooking (such as frying and stewing), adding a subtle nutty aroma to dishes while also providing a source of unsaturated fatty acids.
   Nutritional Supplement: As a healthy cooking oil, it can be taken directly (in moderation) or added to salads, yogurt, and beverages to supplement essential fatty acids and vitamins.
