Overview
cocojojo sells this sweet almond oil as a 16 ounce, 470 ml, bulk bottle, and the listing leans into carrier-oil uses: DIY formulations, soap making, and diluting essential oils, plus skin, hair, and nails. It is pure, unrefined, cold pressed, non-GMO, and vegan.
At $13.99 for a full pint, the value per ounce is excellent, which is the main draw here. Sweet almond oil is a gentle, hydrating classic that works on the body and hair as easily as the face, and it carries a light almond scent rather than being unscented.
With a 4.6 average from 253 ratings it is well liked, though stock is very limited at the time of writing. If you go through oil quickly or make your own blends, the large size makes sense; for occasional facial use it may be more than you need.
Pros
- Large 16 ounce bottle for just $13.99, strong value per ounce
- Pure, unrefined, cold pressed, non-GMO, and vegan
- Versatile as a carrier oil for DIY, face, body, and hair
- Well rated at 4.6 from 253 reviews
Cons
- A plain carrier oil with no targeted anti-aging actives
- Carries a natural almond scent, so not for the fragrance-averse
- Very limited stock, listed as only 3 left
Performance notes
Sweet almond oil is a light, hydrating carrier oil that absorbs fairly quickly and supports the look of soft, moisturized skin. Because it is unrefined and cold pressed, it keeps a mild natural almond scent and its skin-conditioning fatty acids. It contains no added actives, so its role is basic moisture and dilution.
What buyers say
A 4.6 average across 253 ratings shows buyers are happy with the quality and value. The moderate review count suggests a steady, reliable seller rather than a viral hit.

Frequently asked questions
Is this meant for the face or for DIY use?
Both. The listing markets it as a bulk carrier oil for DIY formulations and soap making, as well as for face, body, hair, and nails. The large 16 ounce size makes it especially handy for mixing your own blends.
Does it have a scent?
Yes, a light natural almond scent, since it is unrefined and cold pressed rather than deodorized. If you prefer a completely unscented oil, this may not be the right pick.
How does the value compare?
At $13.99 for 16 ounces, the cost per ounce is very low compared with the small 1 ounce facial oils in this group. That makes it a budget-friendly choice for frequent or whole-body use.
