Sweet almond oil now originates from the Maghreb, China, North and South America, and Australia. The almond tree usually produces almonds in late winter (January to March), and its fruit appears from June onward. This always depends on the location of the plantation.

The extraction process for good almond oil is the first cold pressing. It then reveals all its characteristics, such as: its high composition of vitamins A, D and E and several vitamins of the B complex. It is also rich in amino acids and minerals (calcium, magnesium, chromium, iron, potassium and phosphorus). Sweet almond oil is good for all skin types and its composition makes it a faithful friend for softening, nourishing, moisturizing and soothing dry to very dry skin.

And, as my little marketing tip requires, you will find at La Savonnerie Blanchou the very popular sweet almond oil soap and organic sweet almond oil in a 120 ml bottle with its pump.

On that note, I wish you a wonderful spring!
