User questions & answers

Question:	Is this organic
Answer:	It doesn't say certified organic, but it does avoid harsh chemicals and synthetic ingredients when formulating, so it's more in the category of (all natural) I use it and love it... I mix mine with Argan oil and rosehip oil and use on my face
Question:	Can you cook with this
Answer:	no..i did not use it for cooking purpose..it is very good for skin and hair..
Question:	Would this work as massage oil? Imagine I would like fragrance but is consistency massage-friendly? And it washes out of clothes
Answer:	Yes, you can use it as a massage oil also. Overall, it's just good for the skin. I've never used it as a massage oil but I know that it is not a really greasy residue. But, to take out of clothes, I think it's best to use hot water. As hot as the fabric can take it and you might have to use a pre-treatment with it.
Question:	Can you use this on your hair? I'm trying to grow my hair out and avocado oil was recommended along with a few other oils, but can i use this one
Answer:	Yes!! I use this, and almond oil same brand on hair and face. it will make your hair more manageable and soft. I rub it into hand first and use sparingly.

User questions & answers

Question:	do you sell Calendula Oil
Answer:	calendula cream and gels but from Boiron. Mark. Herbalishous. Wayne, Pa
Question:	Can you use these to make lip balms
Answer:	I used them to make body butter and used in my hair. Don’t see why you couldn’t use them for lip balm.
Question:	Are these for general mixing purposes? Not used for any one part of the body...just for mixing to apply sparingling...thanks
Answer:	Yes, these are 100% pure oils. You can mix them together or with other oils. I mixed them together and use with my body creams. I also combine these oils and some other carrier/essential oils for use on my hair.
Question:	Does anyone know if these oils are cold pressed? Are they clear oils? Do they have distinct smells? Thank you
Answer:	The Almond is expeller-pressed (that's not usually a hot/warm process, except for any hest generated DURING - by the wheels, grinding, etc) and the other two don't specify anywhere (I looked on another site). The Grapeseed is a very light green, Almond is light "almond" color, and Jojoba is like a pale peach. The Jojoba would have the strongest aroma, the Almond is the closest to "unscented". The BOTTLES are clear, but the plastic contains a UV light protectant. Hope this helps! ♡ ♡ ♡

Cooking

Avocado Oil is a great alternative oil with a mild flavor to olive oil. Avocado has a higher smoke point that perserves its nutrients at much higher temperatures. You can use avocado oil just like your regular frying oil to reduce the risk and make a healthier choice.

Moisturizing

Avocado oil is one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin E. Polyhydroxylated fatty alcohols can reduce skin damage, tighten skin and reduce wrinkles. This makes Avocado oil a great moisturizer. It is an excellent alternative to coconut or almond oil. Even mainstream beauty websites are on board with the skin-boosting benefits of avocado oil! Avocado oil can help ease itchy and dry skin and even bug bites.

Improve Skin

The fatty acids that are in Avocado oil happen to be beneficial for your skin.Studies have shown that when adding Avocado oil symptoms of psoriasis improved after 12 weeks of treatment. It has also been shown to accelerate wound healing.
