Aura Cacia Organic Skin Care Oil, Argan, 1-Fluid Ounce

I have a child with eczema, plus the rest of our family experiences dry skin during New England's harsh winters. Argan Oil may or may not work for you... but this is a very convenient size for trying a new skin product! I particularly like this brand for the easy to use pump applicators on top. We've used both this Argan Oil and the same line's Aura Cacia Organic Skin Care Oil, Baobab, 1-Fluid Ounce , as well as many other brands of oil available at Whole Foods and on Amazon, and this applicator is the very best. I can easily dispense a small amount to smooth over my own oily facial skin, or add several pumps to a handful of mixed oils to moisturize my little guy with the skin condition after his bath. ( Home Health - Castor Oil Cold Pressed & Cold Processed 8 fl. oz. really suffers by comparison when it comes to ease of use!) As I mentioned, my skin has always been oily and breakout prone, but also very sensitive to chemicals. With age and winter starting to leave me dried out for part of the year, I was really at a loss when every moisturizing cream I tried led to breakouts. I've been using some skin oils, beginning with DHC Olive Virgin Oil 1 fl. oz. because I had it, then on to jojoba oil and now Argan, and I've been much more successful than when using prepared products with too many ingredients for my temperamental face. I wish I could say we'd cured winter skin, but we haven't. It just feels better with application of some (tiny bit of) oil over freshly washed skin. Argan Oil does feel just amazing going on. I think it has the least greasy residue of any oil I've tried yet (Olive, Jojoba, Baobab, Avocado, Sesame and Castor.) Along the same lines, my sensitive little guy still has eczema, but he hasn't reacted badly to this Argan Oil, though I think the Baobab Oil is working out best for him. Whole Foods has this line of oils on sale this week (month?) for about what I paid here on Amazon, but the regular price is about 50% higher, so you may want to shop around before you buy.

Jussct received this a couple days ago and so far I love it. I looked up some reviews on the best brands of argan oil that were also reasonably priced. Aura Acacia was one of the brands mentioned. I am familiar with Aura Cacias essential oils and am pleased with the quality of their products. I read a lot about argan oil and was excited to try it out. I have used many other kinds oils for body and beauty purposes: sweet almond, sesame, coconut, grape seed, olive, baby oil, jojoba, apricot kernel, vitamin E. I do have to say, that in just a couple days, so far, I think I like argan oil the best. I hesitantly applied the argan oil to my face. I was hoping that what all the reviews said were true and that it would not make my face greasy but regulate facial oil production and help clear up scars and blemishes. It absorbed into my face and provided a moisturized but matte finish. There is no added fragrance to this argan oil. The smell of this oil in its unaltered state is a little like a very faint scent of olive oil and vinegar salad dressing. When applied to my dry hair it created as shiny softer texture. So far, I love this. I will write more after a couple of weeks and report how well this argan oil banishes blemishes and scars and repairs dry hair.

I’ve been using this argan oil for a few years and really like it. It lasts long enough to be a very good value, and you can use it for anything - bath, skin, hair, etc. it’s very multipurpose. But the newest bottle no longer has the pump, it has a dropper style top, which I don’t like at all. If they were going to change the application style, they should’ve changed in on the Amazon listing as well. Luckily I have my old pump bottle, but because it’s an oil that can go bad, I’ll only be willing to use it for this one time before I’ll need a new bottle. Hopefully I’ll be able to find the pump style bottle again.

A nice argan oil, which I use on my hair. It creates a nice sheen and provides moisture to hair that has become more dry than typical. This is my first time purchasing argan oil, so I have nothing to compare it to ... but with all the comments about receiving oil that smelled like expired cooking oil, I decided to purchase this and another brand of argan oil at the same time – hoping one would be useable. Both arrived smelling fine, I would not call either having a “nutty” smell but both had a light pleasant/benign smell (i.e., not bad cooking oil). The only negative, which was mention previously about this brand – some oil had leaked out of the bottle into the packaging – which appears to be the fault of the manufacturer (a bottle closure deficiency). The package arrived more than adequately packed and sealed. Only a small amount of the oil leaked out into the inner packaging that encapsulated the bottle, so there was still plenty of oil remaining in the bottle. Not a bottle that I would use for travel, but I like the argan oil.

I absolutely love this product, but the packaging was awful! Two glass bottles with absolutely no packing material! It arrived with the box completely soaked in oil. So so sad. Why would anyone do this? Buy this through another seller! It's great.

I've tried a number of different brands of pure argan oil, and for some reason, this is the most effective I've found. Does a fabulous job of moisturising and of rebalancing the oils in your skin. It's done wonders for occasional eczema too.
