Lovely Apricot oil

This is perfect for me. I use apricot oil as a base oil to mix with patchouli oil. They marry together well. thank you.

Excellent

Haven't used this oil for some time but find it good for so many things, blending with others for moisturizer for example, as well as salad dressing.

Add to your stash

Can't go past this in your ingredient list ! A great alternative to almond oil if anyone has nut allergies.
