Frequently Asked Questions

What is Apricot Kernel Oil and why is it in a lanolin body oil?

Apricot Kernel Oil is pressed from the kernels of apricots and is rich in oleic acid (omega-9) and linoleic acid (omega-6) — essential fatty acids that nourish and condition the skin. It has a light, dry-oil texture that absorbs quickly and is well tolerated by most skin types including sensitive skin. Combined with lanolin's exceptional moisture-locking properties, the two ingredients provide complementary benefits — apricot kernel nourishes and the lanolin retains and seals.

How do I use Alpine Silk Organic Lanolin Oil?

For body use: apply to damp skin after showering for best absorption, massaging in with circular motions. For face: apply 2–3 drops to clean skin as a facial oil step before moisturiser, or mix a drop into your moisturiser for added nourishment. For hair: apply a small amount to the mid-lengths and ends of dry or damp hair to smooth, condition, and reduce frizz.

Is this oil suitable for stretch marks?

Lanolin-based oils are widely used for stretch mark prevention and treatment — the lanolin supports skin elasticity and moisture while the oil nourishes the skin. For best results with stretch marks, apply twice daily with firm massage to the affected areas. Prevention (applied from early pregnancy) is more effective than treating established marks.

Can the oil be used on the face without causing breakouts?

Apricot Kernel Oil is relatively low on the comedogenicity scale, making it less likely to clog pores than heavier oils like coconut oil. For acne-prone skin, use sparingly and monitor — if breakouts increase, discontinue facial use and use on body only.

Is this suitable for use during pregnancy?

Yes. The Certified Organic Lanolin, Apricot Kernel Oil, and Vitamin E formula contains no retinoids or harsh ingredients contraindicated during pregnancy. It is widely used by pregnant women for stretch mark prevention and skin comfort. Confirm the current ingredient list on the product label for any formulation updates.
