Sweet Almond Oil

Beautiful Italian skin and hair oil

I love Santa Maria Novella in any form but the almond oil is wonderful dipped into SMN rose moisturiser as well as ends of hair, patted on face at night or in dry weather, as a base for fragrance to dance on the skin with or as a luxe facial massage oil that can be left on The packaging is special and romantic as is this delicious brand with a wonderful heritage

Versatile oil

It’s very moisturising without being too sticky. I’m a minimalist with skincare so I like that this one product is versatile, I can use it on my body and face, even around the eyes. It also helps breakup some makeup when used as part of a double cleanse. Containing only one ingredient of high quality this is perfect for those like me who have extremely sensitive skin. Sweet almond oil shouldn’t be overlooked for its simplicity, Empress Elisabeth of the Austro-Hungarian empire was renowned for her beauty and she used pure sweet almond oil. This can also be used as a carrier oil to mix with essential oils for aromatherapy.
