  • Triacylglycerides: softening and softening properties, help to rebuild the lipid film of the skin.

Precautions

- Although traditionally used for the care of pregnant women and babies, some doctors now advise against the continuous application of sweet almond oil during pregnancy due to the increase in cases of allergies to nuts. We, therefore, advise you to alternate the application of sweet almond oil with other oils or butter to avoid the risk of sensitization.
- It is not recommended to use this oil in people with an allergy to nuts.
