It’s no wonder that apricot oil has been used for thousands of year. Not only does the apricot have healing and medicinal properties, its oil, which is cold pressed from the kernel of the fruit, is rich in oleic and linoleic acids. These fatty acids have emollient properties, which increase the level of hydration in the skin. Apricot oil also is rich in vitamin A to maintain younger looking skin by preventing wrinkles and in antioxidants – vitamins C and E – to help the skin retain its smoothness and elasticity.
Apricot oil is used in a number of BIOTONE massage products because it is good for all skin types and like other carrier oils does not have a strong scent. You’ll find apricot oil a featured ingredient in: Herbal Select Body Therapy Massage Creme, Herbal Select Body Therapy Massage Oil, Herbal Select Foot Therapy Lotion and Advanced Therapy Massage Lotion, Advanced Therapy Massage Creme and Advanced Therapy Massage Gel.
