First off let me say I am already an oily face type of gal, sO I do have to limit how much I put on my face. For the most part this is a very good product especially when I am using my chemical peels and I become super dry input this on to help hydrate and keep moister in my face. A little definitely goes a long way yo do not need to saturate your skin with this oils unless your skin is super try due to a condition and that’s very unlikely. The smell is light, it’s does smell like olive oil but it’s not a bad smell it’s not strong at all is durable, light scented, it keeps you moisturized all day long, you can use this under make up and moisturizers. It will hell smooth out your make up as well but you wilL need to put setting powered on if you are an oily type

As a professional makeup artist in the entertainment industry, I love testing out new products that I can use myself as well as use in my kit on set and recommend to my clients.I like the idea of incorporating olive oil of the highest quality (extra virgin) as it is so healthy for your body when you consume it as well.The face oil has a slightly stronger olive oil smell to it compared to the moisturizer, but not in an unpleasant way (actually made me a little hungry). I was pleasantly surprised how smooth it was absorbed by my skin without leaving a greasy residue. It left my skin hydrated and smooth all day. I can recommend it for all skin types as I have combination skin and it worked well on all areas of my face, but I would limit it to every other day or even every 3-4 days for anyone with oily skin.As far as I can tell (very little information available online aside from their statement on their own website "We love our furry friends and do not test on animals.") is does not test on animals. They don't test on animals, however it isn't clarified if their suppliers or any third-parties do. They also don't specify if they sell their products where animal testing is required by law (China).

I recently tried this face oil and I must say, I am pleasantly surprised! The formula is incredibly lightweight and absorbs into the skin quickly, leaving no greasy residue. Despite its light texture, it packs a serious punch when it comes to hydration. My skin feels so soft and nourished after using it.One of the standout ingredients for me is the extra virgin olive oil. It's a great addition to any skincare routine as it contains high levels of antioxidants and helps protect the skin's moisture barrier. The lachestim (mastic gum) oil is also a unique and effective ingredient, providing rejuvenation and helping improve the skin's youthful appearance.I love that this face oil can be used in so many different ways, like incorporating it into a massage routine with a gua sha or facial roller. Overall, I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a super moisturizing yet lightweight face oil.
