If you dream of an almond, it is predicted that you will live a peaceful life. The almond tree is referred to as “The Awakener”, because it begins to bloom at the first hint of spring. One million acres of almond tree orchards in California depend on April’s bees to annually pollinate their flowers over a three week period.
Almond trees are native to Iran, and are believed to have been discovered and cultivated around 3,000 B.C. This wild, Mediterranean nut or prunus dulcis forms inside a drupe, an indehiscent* fruit.
The almond drupe is green, fuzzy, and oblong; with a meaty, dense flesh, harboring a stone at its core, like a peach. When you crack open the stone a gorgeous cinnamon-brown, nutty morsel appears. An almond! Inside the almond lives an oil with so many healthy and nourishing benefits.
Hooked on Nourishment
Almonds pack a nutrient punch. Nut enthusiasts will tell you almonds are one of the “healthiest foods in the world.” Why? Almonds are…
- Cholesterol-free.
- Amazing source of fiber and protein.
- Help you pack on the good carbs and unsaturated fats.
- They’re portable and delicious!
Almonds taste incredible and make baked goods sing. Have you tried a Williams Sonoma almond croissant?
Let’s look at almonds from another perspective.
Discover all of the healthy benefits of sweet almond oil. For dry skin, acne, eczema, puffy eyes, redness and even some skin tone issues, sweet almond oil has got you covered. Are you ready to get hooked on some phenomenal sweet almond oil nourishment? Here we go!
Cold Pressed is Best
The best almond oil is cold-pressed and hexane-free. Mother Nature’s Essentials 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil is manufactured using a high quality cold press. No hexane added. Raw almonds go in the press, and the pure, natural oil is extracted. Cold pressing retains most or all of the almond’s vitamin, minerals, fatty acids and the ever-popular antioxidant properties.
The alternative? Cooking the almonds over extremely high heat and/or adding chemicals for oil extraction. We mentioned that Mother Nature’s Essentials 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil is hexane-free. And for good reason. We refuse to let our sweet almond oil be processed using heat. We won’t let our almonds be Expeller Pressed either. Similar to cold pressing, expeller pressed oils are processed under extreme friction. To extract the oil, a chemical called hexane, a solvent, is added. That won’t do.
One last thing. MNE 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil is non-volatile. This means the almond oil has an incredibly slow evaporation rate, and it won’t rapidly change from a liquid into a gas and lose its potency or efficacy.
Inside / Outside
When used topically on the body, face and hair, you can expect nothing short of a moisturizing miracle. Here’s what you need to know about non-GMO, Mother Nature’s Essentials Sweet Almond Oil for skin and hair. Plus, some almond vitamin, mineral and fatty fun facts too!
- Vitamin A – Have you heard of retinol? That’s the fancy term for Vitamin A. Essentially, retinol is a stimulator. It works to help grow new skin cells which in turn promotes healthier looking skin. As dead skin cells give way to new healthy skin, those pesky fine lines and wrinkles start to disappear.
-
- A is also great for eyesight preservation.
- Vitamin E – We all need some antioxidants on our skin and in our bodies. Antioxidants fight to keep healthy skin cells from becoming damaged. Vitamin E reflects and absorbs the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays and other harmful free radicals, like toxins, cigarette smoke, and bacteria, to name a few.
-
- Antioxidants = anti-aging!
- Omega 3-fatty Acids – We love us some Omega 3! Because we as humans don’t produce this type of fat, we source it from fish, eggs, dairy, plants and meat. AND NUTS! If you’ve got redness, swelling or pain, a few drops of Omega 3-rich MNE Sweet Almond Oil in your favorite moisturizer is what you need in your daily beauty routine.
-
- Omega 3 is vital for eye, brain and heart health.
- Zinc – the most awesome thing about Zinc, on your skin, is that it helps with cell division and growth, and promotes cell healing.
-
- Do right by your senses. You can’t smell or taste without Zinc either.
- Minerals too? Yes! MNE 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil also contains Calcium, Magnesium and Potassium. This trifecta provides even more UV protection, hormone and skin cell stabilization, and massive hydration. And that equals simply beautiful, radiant skin.
-
- Sweet almond oil is working overtime and it won’t clog your pores!
All that in one little almond? Imagine a handful! Now imagine all that healthy goodness, extracted from the almond and packed into MNE 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil as your new topical treatment. To add in to your favorite moisturizer or as an after shower hair treatment. Sweet almond oil will provide your skin cells and hair follicles the same mix of vitamins, minerals and good fatty acids that eating a handful of almonds provides.
We want you to be applying the best, purest, most natural form of 100% pure organic sweet almond oil, to your face, skin and hair. So, we recommend you go about doing it, by starting here!
Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes (and more!)
MNE 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil is a carrier. A what? If you’re an aromatherapy kind of person, then you want a dependable natural oil that “carries” your essential oils prior to application to your body. Simply add your essential oil to your Sweet almond oil and it will carry and deliver your essential oil without causing irritation and redness to the skin.
- For Hair: Adding high amounts of vitamin E and antioxidants to your hair will keep the ends from splitting and keep your curls bouncy. Add a few drops to wet hair straight out of the shower, or apply before bed time as an overnight treatment.
- For Skin: If you have sensitive skin or get extra dry in the winter months, adding a few drops of MNE 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil to your favorite lotion will help amplify the moisturizing properties. A few drops on your elbows, knees and heels will keep your skin soft and glowing!
- For Face: Applying oil to the face can seem counterintuitive, especially if you’re prone to having oily skin. Almond oil works as a moisturizer, because it hydrates the skin. Use a small dime size of MNE 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil and gently pat the oil into your skin, especially around your eyes, mouth and forehead.
So, crack open a bottle of Mother Nature’s Essentials 100% Pure Organic Sweet Almond Oil. When you do you’re treating your skin and hair with all the essential benefits of one of nature’s most vitamin and mineral rich foods.
Always test a small drop of sweet almond oil on your skin before using it as a regular part of your beauty regimen.
