Almond Oil

Almond Oil
Almond oil is an excellent source of vitamin E and it is the best emollient and lubricator for scorched skin. Almond oil is non-greasy oil that readily gets absorbed in the skin. Even using it in small amounts on the face can help moisten the skin and helps in repairing and restoring the protective barrier in its original shape. Gently massage almond oil onto your face for 3-5 minutes, then leave it on for 10 minutes before rinsing off with warm water.
A word of caution to those who are allergic to nuts; although almond oil is famous for its anti-inflammatory action it is not intended for people who are allergic to nuts. Any application of almond oil would only aggravate the condition leaving the skin in an even worse state.
