Safety & Warnings
Patch test for sensitivity is recommended.
This oil is cold-pressed from apricot seeds (kernels), which are closely related to almonds and other stone fruits. If you have a nut or stone fruit allergy, consult your healthcare provider before use.
This apricot oil is edible as it doesn't contain amygdalin (a compound with cyanogenic potential found in bitter apricot kernels).
