Why we love it
- Versatile Virtue: An exceptional all-rounder, Apricot Kernel Oil is revered for its compatibility with all skin types, notably dry, sensitive, and mature complexions.
- Vitamin Powerhouse: Packed with essential fatty acids (oleic and linoleic), and abundant in vitamins A, E, and the often-overlooked Vitamin K – recognised for its prowess in diminishing dark circles.
