Sweet Almond Carrier Oil is especially suited to dry, sensitive, and irritated skin and it is used extensively in cosmetics and therapeutic skincare. It is one of the best multi-purpose base oils to use for massage, as it is almost odourless and is an excellent lubricant. Compared to other carrier oils, Sweet Almond oil resists oxidisation (i.e. does not go off quickly), making it a good choice to buy in bulk for massage treatments.
