Lack of sleep, stress, ill health and an unhealthy diet are all factors that can contribute to dark circles or “bags” under the eyes. No-wants to have these dark circles as they make you look older and generally less fresh, ruining otherwise good looks. Instead of forking out for an expensive overly marketed beauty product, all you need do is soak a cotton ball each night before going to bed and dab it under your eyes. Gently massage the area to stimulate blood circulation and if you so desire mix some honey in to give your skin a brighter shine. 

The reason why almond oil is so great for the skin is thanks to being a rich source of vitamin E. Vitamin E is great for making skin look younger and healthier. It can reduce wrinkles and some people say it can even reverse the signs of ageing. Scars, age spots and loose skin can all be reduced with regular almond oil massages. 

Applying almond oil and gently massaging it into the hair and scalp can dramatically improve dull and unhealthy hair. The oil will soak into the hair providing it with the nourishment is needs to revive it into beautiful and shiny hair. Doing this regularly will also prevent hair breakage and thinning and provide your scalp with a cleansing and moisturising effect making it healthier and free from dandruff.

Almost oil does not only offer external health benefits but it can also be consumed to strengthen the digestive system. It can relieve some of the symptoms of conditions such as indigestion and constipation and is thought to enhance brain function such as memory and concentration.
