NOW Foods Sweet Almond Oil 16 oz — 100% Pure Unscented Carrier Oil, Lightweight Moisturizer

NOW Foods Sweet Almond Oil is a 100% pure, unscented carrier oil designed to moisturize and help skin look soft and healthy without clogging pores.

Lightweight and derived from pressed Prunus amygdalus dulcis (sweet almonds), this versatile oil absorbs readily and acts as a simple daily moisturizer or a neutral base for diluting essential oils. Packaged in a bottle made from post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin and produced in the USA under GMP quality standards, the oil is free of scents and suitable for whole-body application. The product’s clarity can vary naturally and a UV-protectant clear bottle helps preserve freshness.

How will this oil feel on my skin and absorb after application?

Sweet almond oil has a light, silky texture that spreads easily and penetrates the upper layers of skin without leaving a heavy residue. Most people experience a soft, non-greasy finish when used sparingly; heavier application leaves a more protective, emollient layer.

• Light viscosity for quick absorption
• Leaves skin feeling smooth, not sticky
• Works well for full-body massage or targeted moisturizing

Can I mix essential oils with NOW Foods Sweet Almond Oil?

Yes — as an unscented, neutral carrier oil, it’s commonly used to dilute concentrated essential oils for topical use. Follow dilution guidelines for the essential oil you’re using and test a small patch of skin before broader application.

• Neutral base that won’t overpower essential oil aroma
• Suitable for standard dilution ratios (e.g., 1–5% depending on oil)
• Ideal for blending into massage oils and homemade skincare formulations

Is this almond oil suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin types?

The oil is non-comedogenic for many users and tends to absorb without blocking pores, making it acceptable for many sensitive and acne-prone skin types. As with any topical product, individual reactions vary, so patch testing is advised before regular use.

• Unscented formula reduces irritation risk from fragrances
• Absorbs without heavy pore-clogging residue for most users
• Patch test recommended for very reactive skin
