In Hindi, apricot oil is also known by the names Chullu Oil, Chullu ka Tel, Chuli Oil, or Chulli ka Tel. It is a light, delicate, and non-sticky oil that has long been regarded in Indian homes as one of the best skin care products.
Cold pressing is used to extract SNAANA'S apricot oil from the apricot fruit's kernels (seeds). The oil should be cold-pressed because this preserves the oil's natural chemical composition. Oleic acid and linoleic acid, both unsaturated fats, make up the majority of the oil. The modest contributions of palmitic, palmitoleic, and stearic acids to the total oil content make it exceptional with immense nutrition.
Vitamin Content of Apricot Kernels - Depending on the method of manufacture, apricot oil's actual vitamin content may change. It contains alpha-linolenic acid, phytosterols, vitamin C, potassium, linoleic acid, etc.
A popular hair oil in the Himalayas, apricot oil is a great softener and moisturizer for the face, hands, and hair. A well-known therapeutic body massage oil, it is advised for skin that is dry, sensitive, or prematurely aged. Using the conventional "Ghani," this oil is cold-pressed from chosen bitter apricot kernels. When used at night, it can also provide relief from body aches and joint problems.
It is both edible and suitable for topical application as a cosmetic (which can be used in food). This oil has a rich, nutty flavor that makes it a fantastic addition to desserts and other dishes.
The term "Chullu" or "Chulli" oil is also used in India to refer to the ancient oil known as "wild apricot" (SNAANA's Himalayan Chullu Oil or Chuli Oil). Himalayan Apricot Oil gets its name from the fact that it is made from apricot trees and fruits, which are native to the Himalayas and other regions of Asia and are grown in cold climates.
The seed for SNAANA comes from Himalayan towns. About 200-250 grams of oil are present in one kilogram of seeds. And the shelf life of cold-pressed oil is about a year since it is cold-pressed.
