i was given a bottle of this from a friend for a birthday, as she knew i liked my oils and thought i might like to give this one a go. i had seen it in store but hadn't really given it a second thought, as most essano skin care products make my skin misbehave.
i love oils that come with droppers, they just seem so much fancier than a pump, so that was a huge win for me. i also thought the size of the bottle was pretty good too, and i found out it came in a bigger size which was great.
the oil itself was nice enough, nothing like trilogy's rosehip which i am accustomed to and prefer, but it was nice. it felt heavier than trilogy and i didn't think it absorbed as fast. the one thing i truly despised though was the smell. R A N K. didn't like it and i put off using it because of the smell. it lingered for much longer than i would have liked and i just hated it. in the end i gave the bottle away because i couldn't deal with the smell anymore.
this oil didn't make my skin breakout as much, but there were a few tiny dots here and there. i tried to like you but i just couldn't :'(
I've tried a lot of rosehip oils in my time - there are so many out there! This is one of my favourites - it smells nice (quite strong though - if you aren't a fan of the smell, you won't like it) and a little really does go a long way. I use about 3-4 drops, spread that over my face before my night moisturiser. A bottle lasts AGES! My skin feels soft and smooth after using this and if I have any dry patches, a small amount of this oil rubbed in a couple of times a day gets rid of them super quick. Definitely recommend this one - it's a great price for rosehip oil and a really good one.
Tips: Use for dry patches and they'll disappear in no time
