LOVE the product - HATE the packaging
-05.17.13
Quick Take: moisturizing, smoothing
Does wonders on my skin in conjunction with a serum. I'm in my mid-20s and have the beginnings of fine lines that I wish I could erase. When I use this, it gets me there.
Just wish that I didn't end up spilling 2-3 applications' worth every time I try to open it. First time I spilled probably 3 weeks' worth. At this price, fix it!!

Love It!!!!
-05.15.13
Quick Take: fabulous!!
I love this oil!!! I use it every night and almost every morning-sometimes I only use BB cream. The Marula oil has made a huge difference in the spots, lines, redness and in the softness of my lips. I also use it on the back of my hands. Any and all scars I had there, very few, have been dramatically lessened in appearance. In short, I Love It!!!!

Love this oil. Absorbs quickly, makes my skin smooth, hydrated. I use it as my night time moisturizer. Wish it was a bit more reasonably priced.

Fast absorbing & results
-05.11.13
Love this serum, it soaks right into the skin and works quickly to protect and restore complexion and elasticity. Very expensive but I have learned that some things are just worth the extra $$.

Quick Take: wonderful
I traveled to Mexico and used this on the trip, from after sun to putting it on in the morning it really makes your skin feel wonderful. Only needa very small amount. My only complaint is the bottle get very slippery and hard to hold. I did drop it once and lost some of the contents.

Best Stuff On Earth
-05.02.13
I love this product. I have combination skin and am prone to breakouts. I mean I typically have really sensitive and broke out skin. This product leaves my face smooth and break out free. It even helps keep my skin from getting red. Plus my skin doesnt look oily like when I have used other oils. It sinks right in!

Makes my skin silky soft!
-04.18.13
Quick Take: light not greasy or oily at all., a little goes a long way!, great value as you only need a few drops., environmentally sound loved how it is produced!
I actually forgot I had this wonderful oil. I moved from CA to CO and am still going through boxes and putting things away. To really test this oil, I washed my face with Philosophy face cleanser which admittedly is gentle, but on my sensitive skin I would dare not leave out moisturizing afterward. I literally put 3 drops on my fingertips, rubbed them together and applied to my face. It was enough to apply to my throat as well! I haven't put any other moisturizer on and my skin feels just fine and is actually sort of glowy! I'm almost 62 so having glowing skin is quite a nice treat! It is not oily at all, goes a long way and the fragrance is so light I honestly can barely smell it. I would imagine this bottle will last quite awhile, but already I'm thinking I'll be mixing some in my body lotions too. GREAT product!

Never want to be without this!
-04.17.13
I absolutely love this oil. My acne scars are less visible, my pores are all but vanished and neck and decolletage are silky and smooth. I have very temperamental, acne prone skin with many scars and discolorations. You would never know that now! It has evened out immensely because of Marula! Lovelovelove it!

Magic In A Jar
-04.12.13
Quick Take: healing
This oil is a miracle. Soothes sensitive or irritated skin. Works well with acne or rosacea (both of which I have). I use a few drops in the morning and a few more drops at night. It keeps my skin moisturized, plump and seems to improve overall clarity and brightness. Not sure how it does it but it's magic! I drop a few drops on my fingers, then press the fingers of both hands together and them press my fingers to my face and chest.

Will Repurchase!
-04.11.13
I had 2 samples of this from Sephora and by the time I was done with my first one, I had a bottle of this on it's way to me. I love it! I put this on a clean face. 2 or 3 drops and I let it sink in for a minute or two and then I apply my regular moisturizer. My makeup goes on very nice and smooth. I went a week just putting this on before bed but I missed it under my makeup. When I want to treat myself to a little something extra, I add a couple drops to my regular body moisturizer. Totally worth it!

Quick Take: marula
I purchased this product with low expectations as I have tried so many other brands. I have to say this is amazing! I use it as the last step of my skincare routine. In sinks right in and does wonders for my skin which is oily combination. No greasy residue or anything. I use it on my face and neck 2 times per day. I am in love with this for sure!!!

not impressed
-04.07.13
Quick Take: dry
This is my 2nd attempt posting since Sephora doesn't seem to want to post this. Positive: smells good; Negative: price and not hydrating enough. I ended up with Josie Maran's Argan oil which has been a miracle for my extremely dry and sensitive skin.

Great oil - but the scent is overwhelming

Would have given this 4 stars, but the scent is just so overpowering and took literally hours to die down.

A nourishing oil
-04.03.13
I mix this in with my moisturizer and a bit of sunscreen and massage this into my face. It feels very good and seems to have a plumping effect. It makes me look more alive in the morning.

Surprisingly effective
-04.02.13
It seems counter intuitive to put an oil on your face, but this actually creates an excellent balance. It helped with the flake areas and never created an oil slick in the T zone. I like it alone for daytime and adding it to night cream.

Amazing! My favorite product by far!
-04.02.13
Quick Take: a miracle!, hydrating, luxurious
I got this oil about 3-4 weeks ago and it is, hands down, my favorite product. I have struggled with breakouts/dull skin for a while and this has totally changed my skin. I use it in place of my moisturizer at night and underneath my SPF moisturizer during the day. Also use it on my neck and the backs of my hands. I have to say that my skin is glowing and that my makeup (Dior BB Cream) goes on so smooth. I feel years younger. My husband, co workers and my esthetician have all commented on how clear and healthy my skin looks. I'm not used to hearing words like "fantastic," "clear," and "glowing" associated with my face, so this is a welcome change. This is definitely worth the investment and will be a long-term beauty staple for me.

can't live without this!
-03.31.13
I can't begin to describe how great this product is! I have oily/sensitive skin and breakout easily. I live in Florida where the humidity can get pretty bad and was concerned this oil on top of the humidity and my oily skin would make me greasy or break out. I have not had any issues with this oil. I mix a few drops with my moisturizer and use on face/neck morning and night. I have received several compliments about my "glowing skin". As a bonus, It smells very nice too! I will definitely be using this product again and again and again
