About this product
Pour a little into a glass dish and it glows a deep, dark green, the color of the fruit just beneath its skin. Nothing has been taken out: this avocado oil is virgin and unrefined, so it keeps all the nourishment avocado is known for.
From organically produced Persea gratissima, it contains vitamins A, B1, B2, D and E, pantothenic acid, protein, lecithin and fatty acids. It is very penetrating, reputed to be more so than most carrier oils, and a superb emollient, nourishing for dry and dehydrated skin. Its moisturizing, softening nature makes it a valuable addition to blends for mature skin, to massage oils, and to handcrafted soap for mature or dry skin, where its unsaponifiable fractions help maintain suppleness. It is also a very long-lasting oil.
Avocado oil is fairly heavy, so it is at its best blended with lighter oils.
