Sweet Almond Oil 4 Oz.

Product Details

Sweet almond oil, despite its name, doesn't contain any aromatic properties. It has a very faint, nutty scent and doesn't offer the inhalation benefits that other essential oils do. However, it is a popular carrier oil in aromatherapy. Carrier oils are used to dilute essential oils before applying them to the skin, as essential oils in their concentrated form can be irritating. Sweet almond oil is lightweight and easily absorbed by the skin, making it a good choice for massage blends.

Medicinally, sweet almond oil is thought to be soothing and moisturizing for the skin. It may help with dry, itchy skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Some people also use it to soften stretch marks and scars.

When it comes to pairing with other oils, sweet almond's strength lies in its versatility. Because it's a mild carrier oil, it can be used with a wide variety of essential oils. Popular pairings include lavender oil for relaxation, chamomile oil for calming inflammation, and tea tree oil for acne treatment.

In the realm of magick, sweet almond oil is associated with purity, gentleness, and new beginnings. It's sometimes used as a base for magickal massage oils or added to rituals intended to promote peace and healing. It can also be used to anoint candles or other ritual tools.
