Apricot Kernel Oil

Apricot kernel oil is one of those quietly indispensable carrier oils – light, soft, and genuinely pleasant to use. Cold-pressed from the kernels of Prunus armeniaca, it has a pale golden colour, a faint nutty-sweet scent, and a texture that absorbs quickly and leaves a dry, non-greasy finish rather than sitting heavy on the skin.

That lightness is its signature. With a low comedogenic rating (around 2) and a soft, mild character, it suits most skin types – including sensitive and mature skin – which is why it's such a popular facial oil, massage base, and leave-on ingredient. Its fatty-acid profile (high in oleic and linoleic acids, with naturally occurring vitamin E) gives it a soft, conditioning feel across skincare and haircare. It's a carrier oil, so it's used neat – no dilution needed – and it blends beautifully with essential oils for custom serums and massage blends. Supplied from 100 ML to 10 KG, with COA and MSDS, from Raasa Oils.

Apricot Kernel Oil Benefits

Lightweight Feel

Apricot kernel oil is one of the lighter carrier oils – it absorbs quickly and leaves a soft, dry, non-greasy finish rather than sitting on top of the skin. That fast-absorbing, weightless feel is why formulators love it as a facial oil and a leave-on base that never feels heavy or oily.

Sensitive Skin

With a soft, mild character and a low comedogenic rating (around 2), apricot kernel oil suits most skin types, including sensitive and mature skin. It conditions and softens without a heavy feel, making it a gentle, well-tolerated base for face and body formulations where mildness matters most.

Rich in Oleic

Apricot kernel oil is naturally high in oleic (omega-9) and linoleic (omega-6) fatty acids, with naturally occurring vitamin E. That fatty-acid profile is what gives it its soft, conditioning, skin-softening character and makes it such a versatile, nourishing base oil across skincare, haircare, and massage.

Facial Oil

Its smooth, even glide and light finish make apricot kernel oil a favourite for massage and facial oils. It spreads easily, absorbs without greasiness, and carries essential oils well – giving massage therapists and formulators a soft, elegant, non-heavy base that feels indulgent on the skin.

Apricot Kernel Oil Uses

Skincare Product

Cosmetic brands use apricot kernel oil in moisturisers, serums, creams, and facial oils for its light, fast-absorbing feel and gentle, conditioning character. It suits dry and sensitive-skin formulations especially well, and its non-greasy finish makes it a popular natural base for premium and clean-beauty skincare lines.

Haircare Products

Apricot kernel oil is valued in shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks for its lightweight, non-weighing nourishment. It conditions the scalp and hair, adds softness and shine, and absorbs without heaviness – an excellent natural base for premium haircare products aimed at health-focused consumers.

Massage Oils

Spas and wellness centres use apricot kernel oil as a massage base for its smooth, even glide and light finish. Its spreadable texture works especially well for professional massage, conditioning the skin without greasiness – a natural favourite across holistic, organic, and premium treatment menus.

Cosmetics Industry

Natural cosmetic brands include apricot kernel oil in lip balms, foundations, and eye creams for its lightweight, non-greasy texture. It supports smooth application while keeping pore-clogging low, making it suitable for most skin types – a preferred base in clean-beauty colour and treatment formulations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Apricot Kernel Oil a carrier oil — do I need to dilute it?

It's a carrier oil, so no – it's used neat (undiluted) on skin and hair. In fact, it's what you dilute essential oils into. It's light, non-greasy, and gentle enough for most skin types.

Is Apricot Kernel Oil good for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Yes, it's gentle, non-irritating, and has a low comedogenic rating (~2), so it's unlikely to clog pores for most people. It suits sensitive, mature, and combination skin especially well. Patch test first if your skin is reactive.

What's in Apricot Kernel Oil — what's the fatty-acid profile?

It's high in oleic (omega-9) and linoleic (omega-6) fatty acids, with naturally occurring vitamin E – the profile behind its soft, conditioning, skin-softening feel.

How should I store Apricot Kernel Oil?

Keep it in a cool, dark place, ideally an amber glass bottle, away from heat and sunlight. Refrigeration extends its shelf life; like all fixed oils, it oxidises slowly over time.

Can Apricot Kernel Oil be used in DIY skincare?

Absolutely, it's an excellent base oil for homemade serums, balms, moisturisers, and hair treatments, alone or blended with essential oils.

Do you offer bulk/wholesale quantities and documentation?

Yes, as a supplier, bulk distributor, and wholesaler, we offer 100 ML up to 10 KG (and larger on request) at wholesale pricing, with COA and MSDS available. For bulk and export enquiries, contact our team directly.
