Apricot Oil
Description :
Overview of Apricot Oil
Apricot Oil is a lightweight, natural vegetable oil extracted from the kernels of apricot (Prunus armeniaca) seeds. It is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins A, C, and E, and antioxidants, making it an excellent emollient and moisturiser in skin care, hair care, and cosmetic formulations. Known for its non-greasy texture, rapid absorption, and nourishing properties, Apricot Oil helps improve skin elasticity, softness, and hydration while promoting healthy-looking hair.
Its CAS number is 91770-51-3, and it is typically supplied as a pale yellow to amber liquid oil with a mild nutty aroma. Apricot Oil is often combined with other carrier oils, essential oils, and cosmetic ingredients such as Jojoba Oil, Almond Oil, Vitamin E, and Shea Butter to enhance skin and hair benefits.
