The Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Seed Meal is a by-product of the extraction of oil from the dried, ripe seeds of the sweet almond tree, Prunus amygdalus dulcis. The oil obtained from this source is a light, straw-colored or colorless liquid. In the personal care and cosmetics industry, the oil is used in a variety of products, from bath oils and lipsticks to skin-cleansing products, moisturizers, night creams, and sunscreen. The meal obtained from the same source is a yellowish to light-tan loose powder that has a fresh almond smell. It is primarily used in soaps and other skin-cleansing products. This oil serves as a lubricant on the skin, providing a soft and smooth texture. When used in shampoos, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil adds a shiny finish to the hair and also works as an oil and water emulsifier.
