Avocado Carrier Oil has very little aroma, which is typical of most carrier oils.
Avocado Carrier Oil includes vitamins A, B1, B2, D, E, and Beta-Carotene. It is classified as a monounsaturated oil and works best for dry skin in topical applications.
- Moistens and nourishes.
In addition to vitamin E, avocado oil provides potassium, lecithin, and a variety of other elements that can nourish and moisturize the skin.
The epidermis, the skin's outermost layer, easily absorbs these nutrients, which also aid in the formation of new skin cells.
- Reduces inflammation from psoriasis and eczema.
Avocado oil contains antioxidants and vitamins that may help treat the dry, irritated, and flaky skin associated with eczema and psoriasis.
A person with a skin issue may want to test a patch of skin first to be sure the oil does not cause or worsen their symptoms.
- Helps prevent and treat acne.
Avocado oil, when kept on for a brief period of time and rinsed off with warm water, can moisturize the skin without leaving an oily residue. This may lower the risk of acne.
- Accelerates wound healing.
Avocado oil may help wounds heal more quickly. Avocado oil contains fatty acids and oleic acids, which can stimulate collagen synthesis, the process of producing new connective tissue.
Avocado Oil is commonly added to other carrier oils to boost protein and vitamin content. It is mostly utilized by manufacturers (especially for soaps, lotions, and creams) and massage therapists.
Consistency: Typical and characteristic of carrier oils.
Avocado Carrier Oil will leave a sticky, waxy residue if applied topically to large areas of skin.
Shelf Life: Under suitable storage circumstances (cold and out of direct sunlight), users can expect a shelf life of up to two years. We also recommend cooling after opening. The most recent Best Before Date can be seen on the Certificate of Analysis.
Cautions: Nobody knows, but this oil may stain bedding.
Cold-pressed carrier oils should be stored in a cool, dark place to keep them fresh and maximize their shelf life. If refrigerated, bring to room temperature before use.
