I absolutely love this oil and use it in almost all of my products! It moisturizes wonderfully without leaving your skin feeling greasy and has no fragrance that masks the EOs or FOs I put into my products. I also love that it is virgin, made in the USA and has such a great price value. Thanks again NDA!

It looks like the price of the oil increased since my last purchase, but the price is still one of the best in the market. As most people know, sweet almond oil is one of the most common carrier oils recommended to dilute essential oils for massages. And it's great! Because the oil absorbs into the skin at an average rate, it gives the skin a nice beautiful skin that looks healthy--very moisturizing. The oil has a very faint nutty smell that's not very noticeable. This almond oil is cold pressed and virgin, meaning that it's been minimally processed heat, etc.; cold pressed and virgin is as good as it can possible get--all the skin-benefiting minerals and vitamins are still intact.

Great quality oil and price. Recommend purchasing the drum tap for the 5 gallons as it makes it very easy for use.
