US OrganicApricot Kernel Oil, USDA Certified Organic,100% Pure & Natural, Cold Pressed Virgin, Unrefined in Amber Glass Bottle w/Glass Eyedropper for Easy Application (2 oz (Small))

My bottle arrived thankfully unbroken in an envelope. I understand now how some of the reviews of broken bottles occurred. Glass products should be packaged in boxes not envelopes. Less risk of breakage. For this I would rate AMAZON with 1 star. As far as the product I give it 5 stars! It comes in a glass bottle instead of plastic which is important to me. It absorbs easily into my skin and does not leave an oily or greasy feeling at all. I really like this product although I would have liked a stronger sesame scent to it. The scent is very faint.

This is my 3rd bottle. It lasts about a year. I use it on my face after I shower and before I put on my makeup. I am very pleased with this product. I also use it on the bottoms of my feet after I use a pumice stone on them.

I am not new to the use of essential and carrier oils, but using sea buckthorn oil was a new experience for me even though I had read about its use in nourishing the tissues in your skin and body and that it had a long history in regional folk medicines dating back thousands of years.While I already have self made oil and lotion blends that I use for facial and body skin that I am very happy with, I am always open to learning new things and improving on what's there. So I was really curious and attracted to sea buckthorn due to its healing and rejuvenating effects on the skin and wanted to give it a try. I saw this product on Amazon and since US Organic Group wasn't a supplier that I was familiar with I had to research first before I was willing to purchase something that I was planning to use on my skin. I realize that reviews are not meant to be about manufacturer, but the manufacturer plays a key role for me in something like essential oils. One thing that swayed me in giving this manufacturer a try is not only because the product certified organic, but also that their products are 100% cruelty free. If you do a little further searching you will find that this company seems to have wellness in their DNA with affiliations to some other interesting organizations.The oil itself has what I would call a deep amber or red orange color and viscous. It has a bit of a musky scent to it, although you can't really smell unless you hold it up directly to your nose. It can stain your skin, especially if you fail to dilute sufficiently. However, this is temporary and washes off easily.It's a great exfoliator, skin cleanser and good for healing the skin. There have actually been studies done which show that daily use helps slow down the signs of aging by nourishing skin tissues. What's there not to love about that!My facial skin is extremely sensitive and I have gotten to the point that I will know almost immediately if my skin likes what I am putting on it or not. I know some people may think that I am a little nuts, but it's true in my case. The reason I bring this up, is that when I used this product in my blend and apply it to my face, I can feel my skin reacting positively.This is a very concentrated oil, and I recommend that you use sparingly. Also make sure that you dilute with a good carrier oil. There are a number of other essential oils that are good for your skin which you can add in your blend such as carrot seed, rose hip, lavender, frankincense, geranium and others. I can't tell you what blend works best in your particular case as everyone is unique. There are a lot of good articles that will help you get started. Whatever blend/s you come up with, I do recommend you include sea buckthorn given its ability to promote skin hydration, regeneration and elasticity, and even helps treat acne.

Facial care for aging skin.

well done packed!Tight sealed,no leak, cute bottle and good oil !Little expensive but worth it .

Smells great

Great for moisturizing. Soaks into skin with no greasy feeling. Comb through hair ends when damp after shampooing to tame fly away hair and moisturizer during winter

love the product but one of the reasons I purchased this item was because of the coconut and was looking forward to the scent, however this has absolutely no scent what so ever.
