The fruit of the Apricot tree (Prunus Armeniaca) was said to make one loving and kind, and the leaves were carried in sachets to attract love. The pulp was combined with other natural ingredients in creams, lotions, and facial masks for cosmetic use.
Internally, Prunus Armeniaca was thought to detoxify the liver and pancreas and promote healthy red and white corpuscles. The apricot extract is considered to have softening and emollient qualities.
Prunus Armeniaca Fruit Extract is a light to medium yellow liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor. It is used in skin creams, lotions, moisturizers, facial masks, and products formulated specifically for oily skin.
