Almond oil is native to Western Asia and is now cultivated throughout the world with California producing the highest quality material in the world. Almond oil is a light to medium weight oil with a rating of 2 on the comedogenic scale. It is used frequently in massage for its protein-rich, lubricating, and mild qualities.
It has been used by the Chinese, Greco-Persian, and Ayurveda schools of medicine. In the Old Testament, the almond was a symbol of watchfulness and promise due to its early flowering. In the bible, it is mentioned several times as "among the best of fruits."
Almond is one of the most common and versatile oils used for the skin and hair for good reason. Almond oil is rich in vitamin E and has natural demulcent qualities. It is known to reduce scarring and promote skin regeneration, making it especially useful for skin ailments such as psoriasis, dermatitis, and eczema.
