Almond Oil Benefits and Uses

Treat your heart and your skin to sweet almond oil

Almond oil adds a delightful nutty flavour and aroma to baking and savoury dishes. Enjoy without regret because the fats in this oil increase good cholesterol - great news for your heart.1 Nature also designed it to be the perfect moisturiser for skin. Apply to your whole body for soft and supple skin that lasts for days. High-quality Kaizer Kashmiri Almond Oil has nothing added and is gentle enough to smooth creases around the eyes. Rich in vitamin E, almond oil in your diet may also help you to turn back the clock.

Top quality Kaizer Kashmiri Almond Oil

Kaizer Kashmiri Almond Oil is made from food-grade almonds, not almond waste. Our almonds come directly from the farm, ensuring top quality for your health. Cheap nut oil made from leftovers may be contaminated with bitter almonds or apricot kernels, which can contain cyanide, a deadly chemical that may concentrate during production. Don’t run the risk—depend on Kaizer for safer, fresher oils.

Almond oil improves cholesterol to prevent heart disease and stroke

It also contains monounsaturated fat, which is proven to reduce bad cholesterol. Bad cholesterol, also known as low-density lipoprotein (LDL), is easily oxidised. The oxidation process causes inflammation of the blood vessels, which then causes obstruction of natural blood flow.2-4 These damaged vessels are then vulnerable to cholesterol build up. This phenomenon of buildup is called atherosclerotic plaque and can cause heart attacks and strokes. Don’t wait. Switch to pure Kaizer monounsaturated oils for a healthy heart.

Top moisturiser for skin and hair

Almond oil is a popular ingredient in high-end face creams because it works. Kaizer pure oil is gentle enough to apply directly under your eyes. It makes a great makeup remover that doesn’t clog pores and helps to even out skin tone. Use to soothe tender skin after shaving. Try alone or mix with your favourite moisturiser to take it up a notch.

Overnight beauty treatment

Left on overnight, almond oil becomes a skin recovery treatment. Get back that dewy glow. Massage into your just washed face and your damp skin will emulsify the oil for even better absorption. This is a great way to combat dryness during the dry months of winter and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

Uncover a secret of international spas and create your own massage oil and scrub

Almond oil is a popular massage base and carrier. Combine it with your favorite essential oils for aromatherapy and lingering scents. Here are a few ideas:

  • Mix it with lavender for relaxation before sleep.
  • Pair with bergamot for an invigorating post-shower treatment.
  • Blend with vetiver as a calming bath oil with a long-lasting fragrance.

You can also use the oil as a base for body scrubs. Try mixing almond oil with sea salt, vinegar, or lime oil.

Motherhood and almond oil

There are safe and effective ways to use this during pregnancy. It's excellent for lubricating stretched skin during the early months of pregnancy and after pregnancy. This skin treatment can prevent and reduce the appearance of stretch marks.

However, it’s best to avoid consuming or applying it in the third trimester, as it acts as a mild laxative.

Almond oil is a safe and natural massage oil for your baby. A recent study recommends mothers to use it on preterm infants because the oil improves the development of new skin.5

Almond oil for daily hair moisturising

Want shiny lush hair? Turn distressed dry hair into hair you want to caress. Put a small amount of oil between your palms and start with the ends. Your skin needs daily moisturising and so does dry hair.
