I love using Essentially Natural's rice bran oil. It works well to get rid of dark marks and it makes my skin look and feel hidrated and youthful
After using Rice Bran Oil my skin felt smooth and light. It left my skin glowing and I'm adding it to my skincare routine to keep that glowing healthy skin✨️
Such a awesome product with long lasting effects 🥰❗️
This oil absorbs into my skin like magic.
This product is great for my face and also on the ends of my hair. It's very light and absorbs quickly.
Love this product. Skin feels soft and smooth
I’ve been using Essentially Natural Rice Bran Oil - Refined for a while now, and I’m impressed with the results. The oil has a light texture, which makes it perfect for my skincare routine as it absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. I’ve noticed that my skin feels softer and more hydrated after using it, and it works well as a carrier oil when mixed with essential oils.
I also appreciate that it’s a refined oil, overall, it’s a high-quality product that’s become a staple in my routine.
Since I started working back in the office, my once clear skin started breaking out real bad, leaving behind acne scars. Since I started using the rice bran oil, my scars have started to fade AND as a person who has severe psoriasis on my hands with extreme skin peeling (to the point I have no fingerprints) this product has helped with soothing the areas on my hands that always have skin tags and are raw from how often they peel. I'm almost halfway done with the bottle and will purchase an even larger one next time! Can't wait to explore more products onghd site 😍
Absolutely fantastic product! I will never be without it again! I use it in my own face serum and I can already see a HUGE difference! Easily absorbs and leaves your face feeling so nourished and soft! Service from Essentially Natural is absolutely THE BEST!!
Have recently tried this product to mix in with my face creams - makes your skin feel great!
Delivery was extremely quick - appreciate it.
I emailed essentially natural asking if they stock a specific product but they responded saying no but then advised the rice bran oil. So I decided to purchase it and it is my absolute favourite!
I have eczema and I really wanted something that is gentle on the skin and that helps for fine lines and this really works and does not clog my pores!
Always receiving great service from essentially natural!!
Great product. It feels so smooth on the skin. My skin is on a new level of glow, love it 👌
I am really impressed with the service as well as the products I received. So fare all the purchases I've made can intact very well packaged also I didn't wait long for my delivery. Thank you Essentially naturals I will recommend you to others.
I have very dry skin and Johannesburg weather is having no mercy. I bought both the rice bran and Kalahari melon seed oil and wow,my skin looks amazing. I wash my face,add some aloe gel as a water base and then seal it in with the rice bran followed by the Kalahari melon seed oil. My bags are visibly reduced,my skin texture is super smooth.
Great oil for your face. Amazing feel on your skin. Leaves your skin soft and moisturised. It not greasy and does not leave you face all shiny looking. Perfect for hair as well. Loving this oil. Its a thumbs up and 5 Stars product for me!
Use it for my hair and my hair has been growing faster and stronger than it ever has!
I use this oil for my soaps. Delivery is super speedy!
Love this product.
I have been using Rice Bran Oil for a few weeks and can honestly say.... Wow! I use it in Conjuction with Hyaluronic Acid on my face and its super fast absorbing yet Nourishes the skin. It's particularly great to use around the eyes because it absorbs so fast. I also use it on my hair and it smoothes my frizzy hair in no time! EXCELLENT!!!
Wonderful for sensitive skin..even for sunburn..rich in antioxidants..easily absorbed by the skin..
Five star oil! Brightens your skin. Light texture.
Firstly I ordered from Essentially natural on a Wednesday and received my parcel the very next day! Wow! Great Service!
I use various carrier and essential Oils for my face, instead of creams, and I recently read about rice bran oil skin benefits so decided to try! So far, so good! I like it. Good quality, no scent. Time will tell ! :-)
I ordered a smallish amount at first to test myself and use in a night serum I formulated and honestly, I love this oil.
It is gentle in its presence, yet I can see after one week of use at night, my skin has become slightly more even in color.
It also has a wonderful, very light texture, and I ordered a larger amount this time, as I am incorporating it in my night serum I plan to sell.
I absolutely love the Rice Bran oil. Initially I ordered a small bottle as I just wanted to try it. Thank you for the quality essentials oils
(:-))
Made it part of my psoriasis scalp serum as a carrier oil. Love thatvits light and not a distinctive flavour on the nose so blends well.
