Review: Fantastic product! Its a very deep green/emerald colour and smells just like high quality Tamanu oil should; nutty, earthy and like a good curry! It also contains the resinous parts of the Tamanu oil which is also an indicator of its high quality. I ordered this product after the recommendation of a Youtuber, Liah Yoo. I have medium/dark tone, extremely dry skin with recurrent nodular/cystic acne, lots of blemishes and acne scars, textural irregularities and hyperpigmentation. I'm usually very sensitive to new products as well and they generally tend to cause breakouts or scars but a few drops of this product day and night for a month along with some simple moisturiser as really helped calm my skin down and helped heal my damaged skin barrier. I have never noticed such visible difference with any other skincare product or used a product that has targeted a multitude of my skin problems simultaneously (having tried and tested hundreds!). I have also been using this on my hair and I've noticed my hair is softer, healthier, shinier, stronger and is growing at an incredible rate. This product might be a bit challenging to handle for those that struggle with strong, pungent smells but it did not bother me at all for the wonders it was doing to my skin. Its also sticky and quite oily if you use a lot of it but I didn't mind that on my skin since I've been at home during COVID anyway! I like the packaging and the glass bottle it comes in but its very messy to use and spills along the sides of the bottle. A dropper style bottle would have been a lot easier to use, less messy and wasted less product. It is a little pricey for the amount you get but you definitely get what you pay for! If you can handle the smell, definitely give it a try, it may be the holy grail you've been looking for!
