I read reviews for everthing, but seldom post anything about stuff I purchase. Which is a bit hypocritical, and is why I am making an effort today to write a review about this particular item. This stuff is by far the best beauty item i have ever bought!!! And i have tried it all, Expensive face creams, eye creams,face washes. I was originally looking for an oil for my hair, but read a review about a lady who used it for her face. Her story was very detailed and everything she described sounded like the exact thing i was going through with my face. I won't say everything but in short; the older she got, the drier her skin got, with an oily T zone and roseaca. And it worked great for her. I also get small whitheads on my nose and cheeks. Not huge, but i get them even on dry areas of my face. My skin condition confused me. How can my face be so dry and oily at the same time. Creams worked for a few hours but eventually left my face dry and flaky and oily around my nose and forehead. I was hesitant at first to put an oil on my face scared my face would completely break out. To me oil on ur face = pimples. Even when i first got it i only used it on my body and hair. On my body, i love it. It makes ur skin glow. I would rather use it than the stinky self tanners i have. It doesn't take long to absorb but u do have to wait a little while. On my hair, i don't like it. Maybe some people can put oil in their hair but i can't stand it. I hate the greasy feeling. Maybe im not using it right. Finally when i got brave enough to try it on my face i was amazed!!! No more greasy flaky skin. My face was actually smooth and soft and it felt like that all day. I later started adding an aloe vera gel to some of my drier areas ( at first the oil was enough but i guess after my face got used to it i needed a little more moisture). But i really couldnt believe it worked and no more little whiteheads. This oil didn't get rid of my wrinkles or reverse my aging but it made my skin feel soft and youthful again. Which is more than any wrinkle cream has done!!! I pretty much use it everyday. I know there are alot of fake reviews out there these days but i still read them, and i may rely on them for most of my purchases probably more than i should. But I still have faith that there is some truth out there. This little wonder product definitly made me believe that. And i hope this review can help someone else who might have the same problems. I don't really remember the person who made the post but Thank u! Thank u! U made me open my mind to trying more natural products!!!

I purchased this product after lots and lots of research into the oil cleansing method and I have to say that I am quite pleased. I have been using this product on my face every morning for the purpose of cleansing and moisturizing for over a month now. Who would have ever thought that an oil can help to clean your face? Well, against all intuition, it does. This oil does what it claims to do. It does not at all clog my pores. It tightens them. It moisturizes a little, but I find that I need to follow up with a moisturizing non-astringent oil in very very tiny amounts after this oil because this grapeseed oil will tighten my skin and dry it out a little bit. My skin seems to love this stuff; I will massage it into my unwashed, dry face each morning and then follow up with a wet hot washcloth to remove the excess. My face glows like it never did before and I have fewer breakouts. I used to have an oily complexion, but now, my oil is far more tamed because my skin is always moisturized properly with this oil (and jojoba oil as the follow-up moisturizer). Definitely money worth spent. And I don't go through it very fast either; it's gonna last me a long time. The only thing is, there is no USDA organic label on it, so there is no real proof that it is in fact organic. EDITED on May 17, 2014 to add: I have been using this for nearly a year now an I am still pleased with this product. I have a little less than half of the bottle left and there are no signs of rancidity at all. Still smells good. No discoloration. Still getting the same results. It really does cleanse the face. You will never believe that an oil will clean your face until you try it. If you have an oily complexion, you will be mortified like I was to try it--but guess what. It works. And here's why: contrary to everything you've ever heard about acne and skin cleansing, your skin NEEDS and WANTS oil. If you wash it all away and don't moisturize it or replace it with something, your skin is going to react by making EXCESSIVE amounts of oil. I've always had an oily complexion, and it comes right back if I fail to moisturize. I use this oil to cleanse my face but then I follow up with jojoba oil as my moisturizer, and my face is very happy with that, and it keeps the oily complexion away. Ladies, you know that feeling when you wake up in the morning with that icky, oil slick feeling to your face? I guarantee you that will go away if you keep your face moisturized 24/7. After your facewash at night, apply a moisturizer (jojoba oil, very light application, rub it in). In the morning you will not feel the oil slick anymore.

Perfect. Same as I have. Its a Amazing Product.

Recently I became interested in learning how to give a Swedish back massage and that meant first finding the right oil, not lotion, and research all pointed to a "carrier" oil known as 'sweet almond oil.' With little background in one oil over another I chose sweet almond as it has no scent, which is why it is a 'carrier,' it is often blended with exquisite and fragrant essential oils for massage and aromatherapy. I have stayed with just the oil itself, and what a stunner it is, never tacky, beautiful on the skin, perfect for those long sweeping strokes (effleurage) as well as the more intense movements such as kneading, wringing, knuckling, etc. And it retains it's slight sheen as you work the muscles, a little goes a long way! I tend to use quite a bit as I've been adding massage for arm, leg, neck and shoulders. Even with my tendency to use more not less oil it is mostly because once the massage is over the skin remains absolutely glowing. At this point I've added use of this oil to my after shower moisturizing, a light covering and then another coat of whatever lotion I am partial to at the moment, the lotion goes on and blends with the oil in a way that can only be called a luxurious experience. I am so amazed at how well this oil moisturizers and feels that any description you may read about sweet almond oil DOES NOT do it justice. It is tasteless and has no fragrance, when warmed up between the hands it goes on as if the skin was begging for it, lovely oil; any purpose you may have for a body oil try this one, it's a revelation, and I haven't even tried it with essential scented oils yet!

This oil is amazing. I use on my stretch marks and hands, because every other lotion or cream I've tried hasn't done anything. It's worked wonders on my stretch marks, my thighs, bottom and waist. My husband keeps saying that I've lost weight, as my thighs, bottom and waist have reduced so much in size. Over the years I've found it really hard to find a good moisturiser for my hand and more so for my nails, as they just kept braking or splitting. So when i read up about this oil I thought OK I'll give it a try. Boy oh boy I was so surprised that it really does work. For me grapeseed oil is so much better than any of the other products that are advertised on TV. I've not yet tried it on my face as I still have my facial moisturisers to use up, but once I have I'm using this.

I was in trouble on choosing the right light weight oil for my extra fine hair. Finally i got it. Safflower oil is 0 rated non comedogenic, 78%linoleic acid oil so that it doesnt cause a greasy, heaviness effect on your hair. And thanks to desert cart for delivering on time.

amazing!! wow. I use it in DIY body creams/handcreams... i also use as an oil to put in my dry hair. just fabulous and you can actually feel the hydrating effect.

Good

Avocado oil is one of the oils I add to my hot oil treatment mixture because of its benefits to the hair, no problems at all.
