SPOTLIGHT ON: APRICOT KERNEL OIL
When it came to choosing the perfect carrier oil for our Night-time Face Oils we knew the holy grail was a non-greasy, fast-absorbing oil loaded with skin-friendly nutrients our skin craves overnight. The answer was hidden in the heart of a frequently overlooked fruit - the pretty apricot
Apricot kernels hold one of nature's most amazing beauty secrets. Cold-press the soft fleshy centre of an apricot stone and out will come precious drops of beautifully light, pure and odourless Apricot Kernel Oil
We've chosen this as our main carrier in our Night-time Face Oils because the high levels of natural oleic acid it contains gives is a high affinity with human skin and makes it easily absorbed. That makes it perfect for a night oil as all the nourishment can reach into the deeper layers of your skin where it is needed most, well before your head hits the pillow
That little apricot is also a true powerhouse when it comes to skin-friendly nourishment. Don't be fooled by its diminutive size. Each one is loaded with Vitamin A, B1, B2, B6, B17 (the richest plant source of this in the world) and contains natural antioxidant, Vitamin E. Just the nourishment our skin craves to help it repair and regenerate while we are sleeping
