Sourced from apricot kernels grown in the cooler regions of Himachal Pradesh, Dearist Apricot Kernel Oil is cold-pressed to preserve its natural goodness. It is light, fast-absorbing, and deeply nourishing, an everyday oil that respects skin, hair, and even the most delicate bodies. Gentle enough for pregnancy, postpartum, and infants, and based on traditional folklore, it is known to support skin elasticity and stretch marks. Although edible grade, we do not recommend consuming it.
This oil took time to launch. Not because it was difficult to source apricot kernels, but because it was difficult to find honesty. Much of what is sold in the market today is quietly diluted with mineral oils, silicones, or refined fillers that are never declared on labels. We waited until we found a version we could stand behind fully.
