Prunus armeniaca L.
Apricot kernel oil is a lightweight, fast-absorbing carrier oil cold pressed from the seeds of Prunus armeniaca. Its composition — rich in oleic acid and a significant proportion of linoleic acid — makes it exceptionally well suited to facial serums, delicate skin formulations and products intended for sensitive or mature skin.
The oil has excellent spreadability and leaves no heavy residue, making it a preferred base for high-end massage and skincare blends. Bioform's apricot kernel oil is produced by mechanical cold pressing on our own certified organic plantation, with no heat treatment, refining or chemical modification at any stage.
