De La Cruz Sweet Almond Oil is expeller-pressed from the kernels of the Prunus amygdalus dulcis tree native to the Mediterranean.

This nourishing emollient helps soothe and moisturize dry, rough and fussy skin. It's high in oleic and linoleic essential fatty acids that help to build the body's natural oil barrier, meaning hydrated, supple and soft skin!

We love that it is a mild and light oil and is thus well tolerated by most people. It absorbs well and doesn't clog pores. In addition to being a skin moisturizer, Sweet Almond oil is also a go-to oil for hair treatment.

Product FAQ

We recommend you store the product at room temperature, with the cap tightly closed. Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources. These measures will help extend the quality of the oil.

Although we don't put an expiration date on most of our carrier oils, they typically remain usable for topical use for at least 2-3 years after bottling, unless stated otherwise. See our storage recommendations to maximize quality of the oil.

Carrier oils may become rancid gradually as time goes on. The time frame for rancidity can vary depending on the type of oil and storage conditions, especially temperature and light. If your oil develops a different odor, discard it and do not use.

The oil is expeller-pressed, meaning a mechanical press physically compresses the Almonds, causing the crude oil to run. This method of extraction is a greener and more traditional way of making oil because it doesn't use any chemical additives (solvents) and leaves no chemical residue.

Yes. Although our oils are intended for cosmetic uses on skin, hair or nails, some of our oils are fit for human consumption and thus require a refining process to remove impurities such as free-fatty acids, gums, waxes and metal ions. These impurities affect the quality of the oil.

We do not recommend you heat carrier oils unless it's necessary for specific applications. The oxidation or rancidity of the carrier oil will speed up due to high temperature.

Although some of our carrier oils are food grade and fit for human consumption, they are intended for cosmetic use on skin, hair or nails. They therefore do not have nutrition facts on the labels and may not have an expiration date. We recommend you do not ingest the oils or cook with them.

When carrier oils remain open without the cap, oxidation will occur more quickly.
