Really bad staining

I don't usually leave reviews but I feel I should in this instance. This product is like nothing I've ever known for staining. I can't comment on its effectiveness as I'm unable to use it. After mixing one drop with another facial cream ( as per instructions) my pillow was so badly stained in the morning that after two cycles in the washing machine it is still stained. I have raised this as a quality issue with cult beauty and am waiting their response.

Great ingredient for skin

This sea-buckthorn is a great skin care ingredient and one that should be considered if you're looking for an oil. I use it along side the marula oil from the same brand. Use with caution though - this oil is a bright orange colour and stains anything it touches so don't drop it. I usually use one drop of this along with one drop of marula oil mixed in with my night moisturiser. It can give the skin an orange hue but it fades quickly as the skin absorbs the oil, and I'd recommend putting it on a bit before going to bed as it may stain your pillow case. Overall, it is an oil I'd highly recommend, and at a great price point - it also lasts ages.

Super

Excellent oil from your favorite brand. It has a very good composition, absorbs quickly and really works, does not leave a greasy shine

Acne cured

So I’m not sure if it’s down to just this oil but I’ve been applying this to my face every night, and I also bought it in a supplement so I take 2 after dinner. My acne (3years) has completely cleared up it’s been 3 weeks since I started using it, I read about this from a brand in the US but didn’t wanna pay the price for their product and customs etc. So bought this one I know it’s bright orange if you put it on at night it’s really not a big deal and if it cures your acne do you honestly really care what colour it is. If you do your own research this has helped a lot of people cure their acne well worth a try. The other things I changed was turning vegan and stopped drinking water from plastic bottles but I have done both of these before and never seen these results. It’s really amazing and feels sooo good to have my good skin back!

Bright, Intense Orange

I bought this once and really hated it because of the intensity of the orange and the awful staining. However, I also noticed this made my skin look healthy and just that extra bit radiant. I have now repurchased this twice. I use this with a mixer: 2 pipettes + 1 bottle of Borage Seed Oil to tone down the crazy orange. I still see a radiance in my skin. 2 pipettes + body lotion. Why not share the love with other parts of our body? I see someone has suggested using it as a mask! What a great idea! A bottle will last you ages and most likely will go off before 6 months. Mine started to smell off around 6 months.

The best omega oil out there!

Sea Buckthorn is packed full of goodness and contains omega-7, besides all the other omegas. Omega-7 improves skin hydration, structure, elasticity and has anti-wrinkle benefits. The yellow coloring comes from the anti-oxidants in the oil and these are also beneficial in protecting the skin barrier from the daily environmental onslaughts! It is difficult to use due to the color. I use it as a treatment as often as possible when I have a bit of time to spare! A good time is after working out -after cleansing, apply the oil, lounge around as long as you can before showering. You don’t have to rinse it all off – the yellow coloring will rinse off first as it is water soluble. And the little yellow tinge that remains can be covered with whatever tinted moisturizer or foundation you want to apply. You could even invest in a second moisturizer that will compensate for a yellow undertone on days that you use the oil.

This oil is not practical

This oil is not at all practical, it’s bright orange. I am very disappointed as I can’t use it because it’s stains everything and looks horrible on.

Dry oil with intense staining effect

So I've tried this for a while now and while it does leave your skin soft it's a massive pain to use. Do not use in the morning and make sure you have at least an hour before bed. This will horrificaĺly stain anything and everything. I use It as a mask but It takes a LOT to remove it from your skin and it's important you do...a ruined pillowcase, towel, cloth and blanket later. Even with stain remover, it does not wash out, ever. Its application is very dry for oil and takes a lot of massaging in. Will use until finished then never again.

Great product

I was never much into oils as I have combination skin but decided to give this one a try. Was not disappointed, this is a great product. I use it both on days when I do stronger treatments like retinoids/AHA’s/BHA’s and when I have really dry skin, like after a night out. It leaves skin so smooth and plump. This can be used as a mask that you take off or at night, as it does leave you orange (protect pillows and pjs!)

Inflammation warrior

I use oil mainly for inflammation and rashes. And with that it works excellently.
