I use this oil in my bath bombs and people (including myself!) just love the way it softens their skin and moisturizes. It's such a light oil that it leaves skin moist but not greasy feeling. Two thumbs up and 5 stars!

This fresh oil is a need in creams and soaps. Its use is very versatile, as some people use it in massage. See how you can use it, but don't miss it ! Once again, the price is very good for such a product. Huile fraïche et versatile. Peut être utilisée dans la savonnerie, dans les barres de massage (certains l'utilisent tel quel en massage, en y ajoutant une huile essentielle. Le prix, encore une fois, est fantastique !

Great product, I use it in my lip balms and skin cream, and makes a superior soap. It is easily saponified and produces a very mild soap with a nice lather. And your skin will love it!!Great price, too.

I am pleasantly surprised by the quality and price of this oil! Sweet Almond is a very versatile oil to use in CP soaps and beauty products. Its light texture does not aggravate acne and it sinks into the skin very quickly. I will definitely be buying this oil in the future!

I was looking for oil mild enough and appropriate for babies and toddlers. My daughter has very gentle sensitive skin, and this turned out to be the perfect massage oil for her. Not only it soothes and moisturizes it actually removes irritations due to oil's inherent qualities. Love the oil, the quality and of course, the price. Thanks ND!

Almond sweet virgin is more pleasant in my opinion that fractionated coconut, yet it is still cheaper. The only advantages of using fractionated coconut may be the fact that less people will complain of possible allergic reactions to products with which it is made. This is an excellent product if you're not allergic to almonds. it is actually scentless.
