Proper skincare is anything but simple. You need a product to keep your skin bright and soft, another to fade pigmentation and scars and perhaps another one to reduce sun damage and fight signs of ageing. But what if you get all these benefits (and then some more!) with just one ingredient? Almond oil is a single solution for possibly every skin problem out there.
If you do not want to invest in store-bought almond oil, here is a simple way to prepare almond oil for skin at home. Things you need: – Almonds – a handful – Olive oil – 2 to 3 tablespoons
Put the almonds (dry and fresh) in a grinder jar and start blending at a slow speed.
Stop and check for buildups on the side of the jar. Remove and mix the buildup with the rest of the blended almond before you start blending again.
Increase the speed of the blender once the almond is of smooth consistency.
Now add one teaspoon of olive oil to the jar. Add more oil if the almond is not properly blended.
Continue to blend until you get a smooth paste.
Put the mixture in a glass jar and store for about 14 days.
During this time, the solid particles will settle down below the oil. Strain the oil and your almond oil is ready to use.
