It is no secret that eating raw almonds, the most nutritious of all nuts, is good for your health. Packed with vitamins and antioxidants, raw almonds help to lower cholesterol, decrease the risk of getting heart disease, and even help with weight loss.

Almond oil, which is unheard of by many, also has several other beauty benefits. Purchase a bottle at any health foods store and apply it to your skin as a moisturizer. The oil rehydrates and smoothes skin and has been shown to reduce signs of skin aging and discoloration.

Almond oil can also be used on skin to combat itching, irritation and inflammation.

If you are coloring your hair at home, mix almond oil with your hair color before applying it to your scalp to make your hair shinier and give the color more luster. Your color will also last longer. Added bonus: almond oil helps prevent hair loss!
