Almond Oil

Almond Oil


Almond oil is obtained by pressing sweet almonds (Prunus dulcis), primarily cultivated in regions such as California (USA), Spain, and Italy. Historically, almond oil has been cherished in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cultures for its culinary versatility and therapeutic properties. Ancient civilizations used it in skincare and traditional medicine for its moisturizing and anti-inflammatory benefits. Modern production methods, including cold-pressing and refining, ensure the preservation of its nutritional profile. Today, major producers focus on sustainable practices to deliver high-quality almond oil globally.
Almond oil is rich in oleic acid (omega-9, 40.8-80.8%) and linoleic acid (omega-6, 12.0-50.5%), which contribute to its stability and skin-nourishing properties. It is also a potent source of vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), a natural antioxidant that combats free radicals. Additionally, almond oil contains phytosterols and minerals like magnesium, enhancing its anti-inflammatory and emollient effects. Typical fatty acid composition includes: Oleic Acid (C18:1): 40.8-80.8%, Linoleic Acid (C18:2): 12.0-50.5%, Palmitic Acid (C16:0): 3.0-8.1%, Stearic Acid (C18:0): ≤3.5.
