Almonds contain Vitamin E, which is an essential nutrient for skin.
Almonds have been used for centuries due to their healing properties, high nutrition value and fatty acids. The most direct way to benefit from them is to eat them, but there are other ways to take advantage of this wonder nut. An extract from the almond is almond oil. Almond oil has properties that make it a perfect natural emollient and cleanser. Because it has no added chemicals or toxins, you don't have to worry about how it may harm you or your skin.
