Apricot Kernel

Apricot Kernel – 1 oz

Our raw apricot kernels are harvested from the seeds of the Prunus armeniaca fruit and offered in their natural, unprocessed state. With a mild, nutty aroma and a texture similar to almonds, these kernels are a versatile addition to both homemade skincare recipes and traditional wellness practices.

Ingredients:

• 100% whole apricot kernels (raw, unsalted)

Uses & Preparation:

• Skincare: Grind into a fine powder to use as a gentle exfoliant in facial scrubs or masks. Apricot kernels may also be infused into carrier oils to create nourishing, vitamin-rich topical blends.

• Culinary: Traditionally used in small quantities for flavoring liqueurs or desserts. If consumed, they should be roasted and used with caution, as they contain naturally occurring amygdalin.

Apricot kernels are known for their high oil content and are a natural source of vitamins A and E. In skincare, the oil derived from the kernel is often praised for its moisturizing and anti-aging properties, helping to soften skin and promote a healthy glow.

Historical Fact:
Apricot kernels have been used in traditional Chinese and Mediterranean practices for centuries. In ancient Persia, they were prized not just for their oil, but also as part of beauty rituals and herbal remedies.
