Thursday Plantation Ultra Hydrating Macadamia Oil Review

I have very sensitive skin so I was worried this product would interfer with my skin more. I wash my face towel dried and applied the oil. The oil itself wasn't heavy and my skin sucked it up. My skin on my face didn't feel it had much on it. The smell is a little strong but not to the point you can't stand it after a while it soothed away. I jumped into bed woke up this morning and my skin was so soft! I washed again applyed the oil then applied skin food light moisturizer and put on my make up as normal. This was slightly different my skin was soft and make up was easy to put on the oil didn't mess with my foundation. With daily use i could see this product being awesome i will definitely be buying more of it.

I get really dry elbows and knees, and i never knew how bad it actually was until I started using the Macadamia Oil. I can run my hands over my knees and elbows without it feeling like sandpaper. Smells good! Didn't expect it to smell like that but its nice! I didn't really want to use it on my face because i get really oily skin but trying it after cleansing and washing my face, My skin wasn't oily at all but nice and soft and plump! I recommend to all people who want nice soft plump skin!

This product is AMAZEBALLS - The Packaging offers a soft neutral effect that is attractive. The oil itself comes out feeling rather "thick" but once you start rubbing it into your skin it quickly absorbs and leaves your skin feeling delish all day long.

If I were to compare this to what I think is a similar product - Bio Oil which I also love - The Macadamia Oil will win hands down.

It is cheaper, it seems to last longer, it feels more natural on my skin, does not leave a scent that can get tiring or sickly throughout the day.

I used some on my sons eczema and its helping him look fresh and vibrant instead of dry!!!!

The only thing I was not to keen on was using this product on my face as it does give a "thick" feeling to it but on my tummy, arms and legs its amazing and I would be happy to purchase more.

The Macadamia Nut oil is great value for $21.99

Thursday Plantation oil is my first product that I got to review on this site. I wasn't aware of Thursday Plantation products until I became a member of this site.

Thursday Plantation oil comes in a large 125ml bottle retailing at $21.99. The bottle is easy to use. Its a pump bottle that's easy to get the product out of it.

My skin type was dry. My specific dry areas on my body are nose, feet, inbetween fingers and hands. Within a week of using this oil instead of a moisturiser I noticed my skin becoming hydrated.

My results from using this within a week was hydrated skin. I had plenty of product left in a bottle. One bottle lasted me one month with daily use. I've loved this product so much I've repurchased it twice. I've used it on my partner and children and will continue to buy it.

My first impressions of this product is that the packaging was a bit cheap looking, granted it is a lower end brand but I'm used to using face oils in glass with pretty packaging. It has a pump to distribute the product which is less fiddly than the droppers other brands offer.

On my first application I was really hit with the strong lavender smell. I am not a huge fan of lavender and don't like overtly scented face products as I mix and match from other brands and don't want to over power the other products I use.

Aside from the horrible scent this oil was quite nice to use. It easily absorbed into my skin after being massaged. The texture was perfect; not too thick and not too runny. I feel like it gave me a good level of hydration and my face feel smooth and soft. My under eye area has become a bit plumper too. I use the leftover product to give myself a quick hand massage as I have super dry hands and it's made my cuticles a bit softer too.

All in all I feel that this is a very reasonably priced product which I will continue to use, i don't think I would repurchase though as I really don't like the lavender scent.

I tend to suffer from quite dry skin particularly my hands so was very happy to trial this product.

You can use it on your body or face. I used it after my showers and it kept my skin hydrated until next shower. It absorbed quite well but still left that slightly oily feeling on the skin without being too greasy. I personally like this having dry skin but that comes down to personal preference. I would compare the texture to bio oil.

I wouldn't recommend using it on you face unless you have very dry skin, or you could use it sparingly as a night cream. as I mentioned it does have the residue which isn't as nice on your face as it is on your skin. I used a very tiny amount on my face after my toner and I have quite dry lips at the moment so used it on them at the same time. so unless you have super dry skin on your face I wouldn't recommend you use it there.

It has a pleasant smell, lavender maybe?

All in all a a lovely product for intense hydration on the body. nice to rub into dry hands and feet, elbows etc :)

Was really excited to try this oil! Sadly it didn't suit my skin but I can see it being great for others!

The bottle is a huge 125ml which is a lot for an oil I thought it will last for a very long time! Which is what you want when you like a product. The pump is good giving. nice amount. So I pumped my first pump rubbed it into my hands and arms. I was disappointed to find it has lavender oil in it. I don't know about you but I don't really like that fragrance, especially if it is to apply to the face!

Anyway I used it on my face for a couple of days but my skin didn't like it! And I got quite tender under my eyes from it so I stopped using it on my face. Feels lovely when applying, but does leave a residue on the skin that needs wiped off. It does say this on the box, so not a big deal. Since my face was having issues with it I moved on to putting on my arms and legs. It's nice enough goes on lovely seems to moisturise but with the oil not totally soaking in and having to wipe off excess seems to me a bit off putting.

This was my first beauty review trail product, I was stoked to try this as I have quite dry skin and was wondering what it would do for my skin type

The consistency is quite thick for an oil in my opinion and a little does go along way with this, meaning the bottle will last quite a long time! Iv used my bottle for 2 weeks now and barely scraped the top.

First time applying it to my face I noticed the veryyyy strong lavender smell, which I wasn't a fan of. My skin felt a little itchy using it the first couple of times for some reason but since then it has been fine It does feel pretty moisturising and it does even out my skin tone, I wouldn't recommend using before applying makeup tho as you tend to look very oily and your makeup slips off your face within a couple of hours

All in all I think it's a good product and for the price lasts a long time I would recommend it to friends/family with dry skin xx

This product was one of the goodies I got my hands on from the Beauty Vault. I love natural oils, and this one was a product from a brand i had never tried before.

The product comes in a simplistic beige box, which to me, represents the pure ingredients within the product. This design is reflected on the labelling on the product, with the actual product itself being in a clear plastic bottle, with a beige label on it. However, I found a product that advertises as 100% naturally derived, using neutral tones and simplistic designs is negatively impacted by using a plastic bottle for the actual product. It just takes something away from the natural aspect of this product, and also makes the product feel slightly cheap. However, this plastic choice may have been to support the spray pump aspect of the design, which easily disperses the product evenly over skin, and results in minimal wastage, but I still don’t like the plastic aspect.

The product is a clear liquid, and has an oil consistency. However, the liquid is completely clear and colourless, which is something I found interesting, considering I had never seen or used colourless oil before. Although this product is Macadamia oil, it has a very strong lavender smell, and this another main ingredient within this product, so if you don’t like lavender, this product is not for you. However, I find it a pleasant aspect, especially as I often use this product before bed, and I find the lavender soothing. This product absorbs quite quickly, but leaves a minimal residue for 5 minutes before it is absorbed completely, leaving skin extremely hydrated.

As I only have fine lines, and no sun damage, I did not notice a huge difference in my skin as a result of using this product; however, i did moisturize my skin so that aspect is really effective.

A nice oat coloured box with cute wee picture plane but attractive. My favourite nut to eat and now one of my favourite oils to use. A nice plastic bottle a clear plastic with a pump top. Yum smells of the sweetest nut and a strong lavender scent I find it quite pleasant and it doesn't linger. This oil is clear not grainy and soft, I get the best results with this used over top of a cream, if I used it under a cream I got quite greasy. I cleanse my face apply a serum a cream and moisturise my freshly showered body, I squirt a reasonable amount on the palms of my hands and go for it face body and neck I rub this oil in the absorption rate is fast the result is awesome soft moisturised hydrated skin. This brand has ticked all the boxes for natural and cruelty free. I actually think with this oil I have found one that my skin just adores and really responds to for me my skin has really improved using this it's not dare and around a tablespoon full does me head to toe. No improvement in any lines but there is in my skins softness . Yes I this is a repurchase for me most definitely.
