I love the scent, it smells like fresh apricots. The consistency is thick and it feels hot. I use it on my hair and it makes it very soft. It doesn't feel heavy even though it is quite dense

So pure and it smells so good. I use it on my face and my acne scars are gone. Very good for facial massages and you can also replace it with your cooking oil. Totally worth buying.

This review is long overdue, I have been just too busy enjoying this oil. This is one product that is always there in my kitchen and it my bathing essential. As an edible oil I use it in everything from salad dressing to my tea and its an excellent moisturizer as well. I had been looking for a good apricot kernel oil for far too long and I stumbled upon this accidently and since then, I have not given it up.

Bottle caps are not closing tightly. It has been a problem during traveling and causing leakage. Pls rectify the issue. Thank you
