APRICOT
Not only are they a deliciously sweet treat to eat, but using apricot oil on your face is fab for getting healthy skin due to a large amount of vitamin A.
Apricot absorbs quickly and aids in treating eczema and itching. It also gives a variety of skin types some extra healing power, including dry and damaged skin, mature and ageing skin, and normal to combination skin.
