Description
Our Avocado Oil is a refined grade, so it's lighter in colour and milder in scent than virgin avocado oil while keeping its nourishing fatty acid and vitamin profile. It's a pale yellow to golden oil with a richer feel than most carrier oils, and it's naturally rich in vitamins A, D and E, monounsaturated fatty acids, lecithin and sterolins.
Avocado oil is prized as a rich, comforting moisturiser for dry skin and leaves it feeling soft and supple. It's a lovely choice for massage, especially on dry or mature skin, either on its own or blended with a lighter oil, and it's popular as a conditioning treatment for dry hair and scalp.
- Rich and nourishing for dry skin
- Leaves skin feeling soft and supple
- Mild scent, lighter colour than virgin oil
- Conditioning for dry hair
Pairs well with: Jojoba, argan, apricot kernel, rosehip, lavender, frankincense, geranium and chamomile
