product review: Tamanu oil

Hi Everyone

This oil is amazing I purchased it not knowing anything about the oil. I must say I was impressed and this oil has a multitude of uses.

Product claims:
Tamanu oil is known as a pharmacy in a bottle. The oil continues to work more effectively against bacterial and fungal infections than many anti-biotics. It has an amazing ability to help promote the formation of new tissue. This property, cicatrization, makes the oil perfect for those suffering from acne, rashes, sunburn, insect bites and eczema, not to mention as a daily standby for razor nicks to speed healing and avoid scarring. Several studies are available to show that large, impossible to treat wounds were successfully treated with several applications of tamanu oil.
Not only has tamanu oil been valued for its ability to heal skin and fight infections, this oil has been highly revered as an anti-aging serum. Slightly waxy, this curry fragrant oil helps skin to repair itself from external damage, fighting off free radical scavengers while improving the tone and elasticity of the skin. Skin will immediately feel softer, more hydrated, and a large decrease in wrinkling can be noticed right away.

My experience:
I use 1 pump of the oil and massage it all over my face and neck.
The first time I used this oil I was put off first it has a very musty scent that I disliked the oil has a thicker consistency with a yellow tinge to it. It's consistency is similar to olive oil but olive oil smells better. Because of the scent I only use this product at night. That way I'm not conscious when I meet people at work. Tamanu oil works wonders on my acne and used it to treat some minor burns I got from cooking.

Pros:
Multitude of uses, as moisturizer, acne treatment, skin burn treatment, minor cuts etc.
Again glass bottle with a pump
Price 2 oz bottle for $24.00

Cons:
Can only be purchased at sheaterraorganics.com
The smell can be off putting
It's a thicker oil can be hard to massage on to skin.

Tamanu oil is a great oil if you give it a try. Never judge an oil by it's looks and scent even though it has a weird scent you know there is nothing artificial that has been added to this oil.

product review: Moroccan Argan oil

Hi Everyone,

I'm so excited about this next oil that I am going to review for you, it's 100% all natural and unrefined Argan oil. Now I know there are plenty of argan oil in the market and all claim they are authentic argan oil but have to stopped and looked at the ingredients listed in the back label? I have a I must say I was disappointed by one of the expensive argan oil in the market. What I saw a oil that full of filler and they claimed they have 100% oil.
Well enough rant I just had to get that out of my chest so on to my review.I purchased the Moroccan Argan oil by sheaterraorganics and let me tell you it's an amazing product I use it at night as a moisturizer for my face, neck, hands, hair you name is I have used it.

Product claims:
Recommended for for dry, mature, aging skin and as a hair conditioner.
Argan oil is rich in vitamins A & E. It has a high plant squalene content similar to olive oil and is high in healing sterols. The non-clogging, non-greasy oil absorbs into skin upon contact. Amongst all of the oils tested over several years at Shea Terra Organics, argan oil appears to last on the skin the longest, offering a full day of moisture protection.

My experience:
I use 1 pump of the argan oil and massage it on to my face and neck after cleansing, I make sure to massage it on to my eye brows and eyelashes. I then take another pump and distribute is on to my hair at night. Whatever left on my hands I rub on to my cuticle and hands.
The argan oil like the kalahari ootanga oil is a dry oil, but don't be fooled is does moisturise well and leaves your skin moisturized for hours. When I wake up in the morning my skin feels moisturized. My hair feels soft and seals in moisture.

Pros:
It moisturizes really well
Product is in a glass bottle and a pump
Has multiple use not just a face moisturizers but hair and body moisturizer
price $24.00 for a 2oz bottle
100% natural
certified argan oil
No artificial fragrance

Cons:
Can only be purchased through sheaterraorganics
The scent, it's unrefined, unprocessed oil so it retains its natural scent.
Does not contain an spf

Moroccan Argan oil is a wonderful product that has many uses even though their are plenty of fake oils out there it is worth it's price in gold. I love this product I'm trying to share it to any one who is willing to listen. To purchase http://www.sheaterraorganics.com/Moroccan-Argan-Oil-Certified-Organic-Beauty-Oil-of-the-Berbers_p_56.html
