NOW Solutions, Avocado Oil, 100% Pure Moisturizing Oil, Nutrient Rich and Hydrating, 16-Ounce

While I wish it were ORGANIC, this is a medium-weight oil that does the trick on dry skin. No real smell, and easy to apply. Wish the bottle was darker to protect the oil from light. Works great as a carrier oil for other scents (essential oils). The avocado has so many valuable traits, so this oil helps you get the healthy benefits easily.

Ill go ahead and say it, Im in peri-menopause. Men, dont run. Its all good. I started noticing last year that my skin wouldnt hold moisture the way it always had. I dont like to use chemical-laden products in my hair, on my skin, and etc., so I opted to try the oil-cleansing technique and ditching soap for my face. I started with NOWs almond oil, a great product if your skin is still problematic but not overly dry. I noticed a huge difference in the tone of my skin and really only had very few pimples (which would have happened no matter what). I loved the quality of the NOW brand and really embraced the almond oil in place of standard skin moisturizers. As this winter progressed, my regular routine wasnt enough to keep from having scaly, itchy skin, a flaky T-zone of all things, and even coconut oil became a staple for me to use. Its oily and doesnt sink in well enough to use and then get dressed for work. And the stuff blowing around outside in the wind (or even my hair) would occasionally get stuck to my coconut-oiled skin. (Its only funny when it doesnt happen to YOU.) I have only had the NOW avocado oil about three days and Im in lovelovelove. Its slightly thicker or less viscous than the almond oil, but wow my skin drank it in and never felt greasy. For a little while, your skin feels like it did, about *cough* years ago. I work outside and the wind has been awful lately, but the avocado oil saved my skin. I had gotten windburn and was really thinking OMG I have lizard skin on my face, and the rest of me was as supple as a corpse. My avocado oil soothed the irritated skin on my face and softened it overnight. Everywhere else I tend to not baby as much as my face and neck, so it took two days to get the rest of me softened up. But Im working outside and I swear the wind robs your moisture through your clothes! I probably couldnt have used such an emollient oil as a teen, but if youre older or just generally prone to dryness, try it out. It makes your skin glow in a way that it would take a $70.00+ jar of chemicals to achieve. It also heals your cuticle issues, and I havent even tried it yet on my parched long locks. I cant be more enthusiastic about this brand or the product. I adore it. And no greasy residue like my beloved coconut oil leaves behind.

This is my first bottle of Avocado oil...but it will not be my last. It is a great oil if you put it on your skin then it does not show up oily. I also use it on my little dog because he gets dry patches and I put this on him and it really helps and he does not get oil on things with this. I am going to start using it on low heat to cook some foods too. Oh and the big reason I got it is because avocado is so healthy for us!!

Good

I have VERY sensitive skin and this is the very best oil I have ever found for skin and hair. Super moisturising and goes right into my skin. Does not clog pores and has no smell at all. Makes my skin glow like magic. I adore this oil!!!!!

It has no scent which I love. I don’t feel particularly moisturized afterward. I still get an ashiness on my skin after it has absorbed. I will still recommend to anyone for elasticity. I used it when I was pregnant and got zero stretch marks, even before my belly got big because I read of its elasticity benefits. I continue to use it a few times a week for the elasticity benefits

I am very happy with the NOW Foods Avocado Oil. I purchased it to help maintain healthy skin and I do not plan to cook with it. I typically have oily/dry combination skin with early effects of sun damage. I had acne as a child and still struggle with break outs at times. My skin is very sensitive and will typically get agitated when using products with lots of chemicals and pore clogging agents. Throughout the day I usually go through at least 2 oil blotting sheets to prevent shine on my face. Also, my nose almost always peels and I usually wake up with dry skin flakes on my face. I use the avocado oil at night before going to bed. I wash my face, apply toner and then use the avocado oil on my face, neck and collar bone areas. It is pretty greasy going on and has a strong nutty smell, but it soaks in pretty fast. By morning, my face is smooth and soft with no oil residue. The transformation is pretty amazing. I have to admit, I was a little skeptical, especially because I do not prefer the smell. I am hoping with time, it will help to eliminate fine lines and heal/minimize blemishes. Since using it, I have not noticed dryness anywhere on my face and it appears the excessive oiliness is reducing as well.

I purchased this oil for my hair actually! I have 3c hair thats difficult to keep moisturized. I use this on my wash days right after I get out of the shower for my LOC Method. It does its job great, the only issue I have with this oil is that it has a smell to it that I cant quite place. It doesnt smell bad but it definitely doesnt smell good either. I suppose kind of earthy. Overall however, this product is a great value for us Curly Girls! Product Approved! :)

I purchased before

First time trying it for a couple weeks so far my hair looks better than it did. Doesn’t look as dry and definitely gives it a smooth and shine look. I also use it for my body and a little on my dry face so far no bad reactions to it. I most definitely recommend and would buy again once I run out.
