Avocado Oil

|
Avocado Oil is pressed from the fruit, unlike most carrier oils that are pressed from the seed or nut. Rich in vitamins, and anti-oxidants, and even trace minerals, Avocado Oil is excellent for dry skin and wrinkles. Avocado Oil is readily absorbed, even though it is a thicker oil, making it a great choice for after bath oils and skin care. Avocado Oil can also be calming to inflamed skin, helping to comfort and cool. Avocado Oil is one of very few choices when you need a nut free carrier, along with Palm Oil, Olive, Seabuckthorn, as they all come from the flesh.
