Avocado Carrier Oil

Avocado oil (Persea americana) is one of the richest and most nourishing carrier oils available. Pressed from the creamy flesh of the avocado fruit, this deep green oil is exceptionally high in oleic acid, vitamins A, D, and E, and phytosterols. Its thick, luxurious texture makes it ideal for very dry, mature, or damaged skin that needs deep nourishment.

Properties and Benefits

Best Uses

Avocado oil is best used in blends (20-50% of the carrier oil portion) rather than on its own, as its thick texture can feel heavy. It excels in night creams, intensive hand treatments, and hair masks.
